From the Blog - Why Do Cats Scratch?

Pet insurance blog book

Q. I’ve always had fish and turtles, and finally decided that I was ready for a more complicated, interactive pet. After researching pet insurance, I recently adopted a big orange tabby from the local animal shelter. Gus is great, but he loves to claw and tear at his scratching post. Luckily for me, he leaves my couch alone. Why does he have this need to scratch?

Why We're the Best Pet Insurance

Young

Pets Best Insurance plans help make vet bills more affordable, so you can focus on your pet’s health and recovery instead of worrying about how you’ll afford treatment.

We offer affordable pet insurance plans for kittens, puppies, dogs and cats ages 7 weeks and older. Starting at less than $1 per day, our plans have no upper age limits and we don't reduce or cancel coverage because of your pet’s age. What’s more, we offer discounts in most states when you enroll multiple pets.

Pet Health Insurance for Dogs and Cats

Whether you‘re the owner of a new puppy or kitten, or an older dog or cat, you‘ve probably wondered about purchasing pet medical insurance. Is it something every pet owner should have?

Most pet owners know the common reasons dogs and cats end up in the vet‘s office, like toy swallowing, accidental poisoning, hereditary conditions, cancer and car accidents. What they don’t know, however, is just how expensive veterinary care can be without the best pet insurance coverage.

Advancements in veterinary technology mean longer, happier lives for our pets, but that doesn‘t come without a price. In addition to routine pet health care like teeth cleanings and vaccinations, office visits, blood work, surgery, prescription medications and follow-up visits can lead to sky-high vet bills. Buy pet insurance to help cut those bills down to size.

Without pet health insurance, pet owners risk finding themselves in an emergency situation trying to decide how much to spend on veterinary care, maxing out credit cards and borrowing from friends and family. Pets Best Insurance plans help make veterinary care more affordable.

What's Not Covered

We'll help you understand what insurance for pets doesn't cover.

Do I Really Need to Buy Pet Insurance?

We're pet owners and pet lovers just like you. We've seen what happens when a pet owner can't afford the veterinary treatment a pet so desperately needs; in the worst of cases, they may resort to putting their beloved pet to sleep. We can think of few things so awful, yet so preventable.

While you can't predict when accidents or illnesses will happen, a pet health insurance plan will help you deal with unexpected veterinary costs, and you'll know you're providing the best possible protection for your pet. It’s easy to sign up, and our affordable pet medical insurance plans can be tailored to fit any budget.

Smarter Than a Savings Account

Our plans offer some of the highest limits in the industry, so your pet has the best pet insurance coverage. Even if you put $35 into a savings account each month, it would take you nearly 17 years to save the $7,000 coverage amount for each accident or illness under our mid-level Pets First plan. Read more about the benefits of pet insurance over savings accounts.

When Should I Insure My Pet?

Pet insurance puppy

If you have a puppy or a kitten, providing them with the coverage now can ensure a lifetime of coverage. Because insurance for pets doesn’t cover pre-existing conditions, you’ll want to insure your pet as soon as possible. Puppies and kittens have the highest risk of accidents because they’re so curious.

Whether you’ve just started getting pet insurance quotes for a longtime companion or you recently adopted an older pet, we think you’ll agree Pets Best Insurance is the best option. We’re one of the only companies with no upper age limits, so older pets get the same great coverage as puppies and kittens.

Wellness and Routine Care Pet Insurance

If you’re looking for pet wellness benefits, our BestWellness™ routine care coverage helps pay for vaccinations, routine exams, blood work, spaying, neutering and more – without a deductible to meet. BestWellness can be added to any accident and illness plan.
