Key Facts

Specialist referral costs for diseases like FIP, cancer, and CKD can exceed 10,000 pounds

Welfare Considerations

Cats in insured households with comprehensive coverage receive more timely and appropriate treatment for significant health events than uninsured cats. Insurance that provides genuine coverage for major welfare events is a significant welfare protection.

What You Can Do

Obtain comprehensive lifetime pet insurance from kittenhood before pre-existing conditions develop
Choose policies with high or unlimited annual limits rather than low-limit policies that may not cover serious conditions
Advocate for veterinary financial assistance programs that support uninsured owners facing major health events
