Pet Insurance
Most of us have insurance of some kind – health, life, automobile, home or apartment dweller insurance. Why not consider insurance for your pet?
This industry has been in existence for over 20 years and interestingly, the European countries have more readily embraced it than the United States has. For example one source of ours shows that in Sweden, 48% of pet owners have insurance for their pets.
Modern veterinary medicine can diagnose and treat illness or serious injury through use of sophisticated tools equal to those available to humans. However, there is a significant cost burden with these. This puts the pet owner in the difficult position of having to choose between their pocketbook and their pet.
Pet insurance may be able to help out in these times. For the most part, pet insurance is similar to human health insurance and can be obtained to help out with maintenance and routine care as well as the more serious accidents or illnesses. Many different plans are available.
The clients of our Clinic that have pet insurance are extremely happy with it.
