Diagnosed with congestive heart failure

My kitty was diagnosed with congestive heart failure and I'm so appreciative of all the help from Pets Best. Because of you guys I've been able to continue vet visits and able to keep him on his meds. We have finally gotten him stable and he is thriving. Without your assistance I would not have been able to afford to take him to the ER vet so many times while we were figuring out his meds. Thank you so much for helping me help my boy get back to a new normal and enjoy our lives together for longer.

At The Suggestion Of My Vet, I Do...

At the suggestion of my vet, I do give Brinkley and Catie a supplement to help with their arthritis called HyLox. You deny any claims for this. It is very effective; so would like you to think about reimbursing, as well as Opti-Glo vitamins they received from their eye vet. Otherwise, I am happy!

I Like That I Don'T Have To Scan ...

I like that I don't have to scan my documents. I like that they accepted pictures of the document and proof of payment because I don't always have access to a computer and I definitely don't have a scanner at home so it would cost me money to scan documents. So the process on the app is just perfect!
