Do cats need to be insured?
Indoor cats are at high risk of many common feline diseases, such as dental and urinary issues. Young kittens are especially accident-prone and can benefit significantly from having an accident-only pet insurance plan in place. Illness may be more common in older cats, but unfortunately, they can occur in younger cats.
Is it worth shopping around for pet insurance?
Pet insurance can be relatively expensive, so it's worth shopping around for the best deal. Comparison websites are a good place to start. But they don't all cover the whole market. So use a few different sites to make sure you don't miss any good deals.
