Why Pet Health Insurance - Some Points To Consider

More and more, consumers are bearing the brunt for the rising costs of...well...everything! Gas, food and utilities are the first things that come to my mind. And if you are a pet owner, like me, you know the cost for caring for your pet has risen too. Food, vaccinations and grooming, these things all take money. One way to help offset the rising costs of pet care is to purchase insurance. I know, I know, why should you choose to purchase insurance for your pet? Well, we purchase life insurance, dental insurance, and automobile insurance to take care of routine and unforeseen costs of caring for our car, our teeth and our life... so why not have pet insurance to take provide for their routine and/or emergency? This is one way to look at it. And it makes a lot of sense.

Whether you are the owner of a pure bread or a mutt, pets require time, effort, and money. For the few readers who are not pet owners, let me say that caring for a pet is kin to caring for a small child. And pets need health insurance just as children need health care coverage. However, many pet owners never think of the benefits of have their pets insured.

Benefits of Pet Insurance

Have you seen the cost of routine vaccinations? Routine vaccinations can range anywhere from $40 to $75 per shot! Has your pet ever been ill? Out of pocket expenses for emergency care, operations and therapy can really put a dent in your pocketbook. These situations are both legitimate reasons why having insurance can be a valuable asset. Yet, many pet owners never realize the benefits of having insurance until they really need it.

Let's talk more about the benefits of insuring your pet...

Pet insurance can reduce what I will call "pet owner anxiety". Anyone who has dealt with a sick or injured pet knows: the "I have been run over by a Mac Truck" feeling. You can't escape it. This is followed by the "deer in the headlight look" after you find out how much the bill is! Having pet insurance can take care of "pet owner anxiety," and allow you to focus on the more positive aspects of pet care.

Another benefit is not having to deplete your savings if your pet has to have multiple visits to the vet. Some conditions or illnesses require that your pet be under the continued care of your veterinarian. If this happens then having insurance can prevent you from spending the small fortune you would spend if your pet was not covered.

What to look for in Pet Insurance...

A great place to look for pet insurance is online. You can get online insurance quotes from several sources before you make your final decision. Here are some pointers to look for that will help you obtain the best possible insurance for your pet:

  • Vaccination and Routine Care- make sure your policy provides for routine care and yearly shots. The savings add up in the long run.
  • Accident Plan- unforeseen accidents happen, you need a policy that will cover your pet should it be involved in an accident.
  • Emergency Care- should the unthinkable happen and your pet need to be seen immediately, make sure your pet is covered.
Giving our pets the ability to live long, healthy lives is a huge responsibility. This requires us, the pet owners, to provide them the best care possible. Purchasing insurance for our four legged friends is one way to help ease the rising costs of that care, especially in the long run.
