About pet insurance

If your pet gets ill, injured or stolen, costs can soon escalate. To fix a cat’s broken leg alone can amount to over £800 in vet bills.

Bearing in mind pet insurance policies can start from as little as £60 a year, and the average lifespan of a cat is 12 years, 12 x £60 = £720. Pet insurance is a great idea.
