Other Factors To Consider
Good customer service will be vital in the event of making a claim on your pet insurance. Does the pet insurance company have any testimonials from existing policy holders, or do you know friends who hold pet insurance. This may give you an insight into the customer service of a pet insurance company.
Some owners choose to "insure" their pets themelves, putting by an amount of money annually in the event of major surgical care. This however is not pet insurance and is not recommended for several major reasons. For instance in the second year you may be faced with a $20,000 bill and unable to pay. Even if you could pay you have not taken the economic factor out of deciding whether to opt for surgery or putting the animal down. You could potentially be a lot worse off financially. This is what pet insurance protects you against. Get some peace of mind and get pet insurance.
