Pet insurance is a form of insurance that is often overlooked by pet owners. But, it can help save you from unexpected costs when your cat or dog has an emergency. Pet Insurance is a health care policy for your pet that will provide payment or reimbursem*nt for specific health expenses that are covered by the policy. While pet insurance can help protect your finances, not all pet insurance policies are created equal — you must understand what is covered before choosing a policy for your pet. Two common types of pet insurance are dog insurance and cat insurance.
What is pet insurance?
Pet insurance is health insurance that pays a portion of your pet's medical bills based on your coverage. No one plans to be injured or sick and neither do cats or dogs. As illness or broken bones can be painful, it never hurts to prepare for the unexpected when it comes to your pets. While the love of your cats or dogs is priceless, veterinarian visits are not. Pet insurance can help make these bills more manageable.

Do I need pet insurance?
Pets are a part of your family. Like every member they may get sick or injured. However, just because cats have nine lives doesn't mean you should have to work like a dog to pay the vet bills. That's where pet insurance comes in.

Will my pet be covered for life?
Yes. If your pet is eligible for accident and illness coverage when enrolling, then that level of coverage will continue as long as your pet remains insured.
What is not covered?
There are exclusions including pre-existing conditions, routine care costs, and more depending on your policy.
