What age and breeds do we cover?

We cover all breeds of cat from the age of eight weeks.

However, we charge more excess for older cats. It's £99 for cats under six and £199 for older cats, aged six and over. If your cat is under six, you can choose to pay a £199 voluntary excess which may reduce your premium.

Transcript

Having an insurance policy for your dog or cat protects against the unexpected.

It covers the cost of vet bills (limits apply) if your dog or cat is injured or becomes ill.

You can also access quality advice from UK-registered vets through PawSquad.

You automatically are entitled to PawSquad when you take out a pet insurance policy with us. But you still need to register with them to get access.

PawSquad give you access to a qualified UK-registered vet 24 hours a day all year round for advice and treatment options over the phone, text or video.

This is what you'll get:

  • Immediate access over text, phone or video call
  • Consultations with a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons registered vet with at least five years of clinical experience
  • A follow-up report on your pet's health and treatment plan
  • Awareness of treatment options tailored to your dog's needs

Insurance should give you the peace of mind that you always have access to the right care for your dog at a manageable cost.
