Pet Insurance is Worth the Extra
August 4th, 2010 by Sarah. No Comments »I was writing a post about dogs the other day and i came across the subject of pet insurance because i was talking about how much people love their dogs. It came to my attention that not everyone has pet insurance, and i must say i was very surprised indeed…
When it comes to an operation for a dog, due to an accident perhaps, or an illness, what do people do who don’t have pet insurance? I reasoned that they must love their dog so they would do anything they could to get the money to pay for the treatment. They would sell their TV set and miss out on the family holiday, or some equally big sacrifice that the whole family would make (and so they should!) After all, their dog is a member of the family isn’t it?
Then i asked myself, is the dog really a member of the family if it isn’t insured like the rest of the family. The majority of families these days have life and/or health insurance, but not all pets do. When a family is presented with a huge vet bill and they are required to make a sacrifice in order to keep their beloved pet alive, they must surely ask themselves, “perhaps we should get some pet insurance.” And to be honest it’s not surprising is it?
For the equivalent price of many operations your pet could end up having, your pet insurance could be spread out over the space of a year and your pet will still be covered from everything all year! That’s a hell of a saving isn’t it?
