The best cat insurance plan is custom to your pet

By purchasing cat insurance, you promise the best healthcare for your cat.

Things to consider when searching for a health insurance plan for your cat:

What is the cost of cat insurance?
Deductibles and monthly premium offers will be determined by factors like your cat’s breed and age. Cat insurance is generally cheaper than dog insurance. 

What do you want your plan to cover?
Comprehensive plan options include routine care throughout your cat’s life, or emergency-based plans cover accidents and illness. It’s also important to look into pet insurance providers’ health care networks to ensure you can take your cat to your veterinarian of choice.  

What are other cat owners saying about the provider?

FAQ

Here are the top pet insurance companies based on reviews from pet parents just like you!

faq

What does cat insurance cover?

Cat insurance covers veterinary expenses for your cat throughout their life. The coverage details are unique to the insurance policy and provider you choose. 

Comprehensive cat insurance plans help with costs throughout your cat’s life. These plans have varying coverage offerings for vaccinations, routine care, and even spay/neuter procedures. 

Other cat insurance plans are just accident or emergency-based as a backup plan if an accident happens; for example, your cat ingests something and needs emergency care. Emergency vet costs are expensive, so cat insurance is a plan for the unforeseen. 

How much does cat insurance cost?

Much like human health insurance, there are options for deductible pricing, co-pays, and premiums. Your cat’s age, location, and breed factors will determine these variable costs. 

Choosing the best cat insurance plan for you will be different for everyone. Cat insurance is for all pet owners, but the coverage details are custom to you. It is essential to read the differences in plan offerings to choose the plan that best fits your needs and budget.

How does cat insurance work?

Cat insurance plans are comparable to car insurance plans. The costs and coverage details are pre-determined when you enroll in a plan. 

As your cat needs vet care that is covered by your policy, you will submit your claim as directed by your provider’s request. Often, you will pay a deductible, and after your deductible, your insurance company will reimburse you for a percentage of the cost beyond the deductible. 

Each policy will vary in coverage details. Your policy will define what is included before purchasing, so it is important to compare multiple plan offerings to make the most informed decision for your pet’s healthcare. 

Who is cat insurance for?

Everyone! The cost of veterinary care can be expensive. Vet bills can add up quickly, especially as your cat ages or if they have a chronic illness. 

The cost of treatment and follow-up care can be a financial burden on you and your family. Cat insurance will lessen the blow of an unexpected accident or a long-term medical condition.

Cat health insurance is a protection in case of emergency. It is promising to give your cat the best care for its life.
