Add up the cost of pet insurance
August 12th, 2010 by Sarah. No Comments »It needn’t cost you the earth! But if you’re going to have a pet you better believe that they’re going to need some medical attention at some point during their life, and if you’re really unlucky they might even need something new every year! Is that a yearly expense you can cope with? If it is then you have a better job than me…
It’s simple when you consider that you can get pet insurance for a dog from Tesco for around £7.35 a month at the moment, which makes it £88.20 a year. Now consider that last operation you paid for (or a friend paid for when their pet was ill, everyone knows a vet bill story). IT makes sense to get pet insurance when you think that a vet bill can quite easily be £200+, and you can also end up paying that out twice if symptoms persist etc etc.
Those expensive vet bills will be sorted out by your insurance company and sometimes the insurance company will make payment directly to your vet on your behalf, so you don’t have to sort anything out at all!
