Cover Level Questions:
Just like humans, pets can develop long term or recurring illnesses such as diabetes or arthritis, that require regular and long term treatment, in some cases for the rest of the pet's life.
Our Lifetime plans cover ongoing veterinary fees for the life of your pet, as long as the policy is renewed each year and the appropriate premium is received.
Our lifetime cover policy provides vet fees cover up to the amount shown in the schedule per policy period - as well as a range of other benefits. Excesses and co-payments may apply. Please see the Policy Benefits page for details
Dogs and cats are very much part of family life and protecting your pets against the unexpected can certainly help cover unexpected incidences. Insuring your pet can protect against unforeseen costs that may arise and with the cost of vets fees continuing to rise insurance is well worth taking into consideration.
Our Standard cover (Non-Lifetime) is a fixed-term contract of insurance which renews each policy term and provides essential Vet’s Fees cover up to £4000 per policy period for each illness or injury up to 365 days from the date that the pet first displayed clinical signs of the illness/injury. Standard cover also features many more benefits including cover for Loss by Theft or Straying, Death by Accident or Illness and Public Liability for dogs.

We insure both cats and dogs from 5 weeks old. Any pet over 8 years old will automatically be put on our Senior plan, which is almost identical to the standard plan except that your pet will not be covered for death through illness or disease. Please see the Policy Benefits page for details
