Should You Get Pet Insurance?
How many of us have pets? How many of us think about our pet as a family member? Do you’ve your family member insured?
Our first pet was a large lovable German shepherd who became our beloved son when we first married. Like any newly weds funds were low and when our furry family member was struck with health ailments our bank account sunk into unknown depths, or should we say debts!
Later we adopted two stray cats from the humane society who we thought of as our daughters. At the ripe old age of 7 years one of them developed diabetes requiring insulin.
She’s now 15 years of age and racing around like a tigress. Instead of slowing down we often feel she is going from a crazed teenager into a crazed kitten stage. The costs of insulin, syringes, sugar (blood glucometer), blood strips and special food are minor in comparison to the huge love this tiny gal shows for us.
Now envision this picture. At only $20-$30 per month we could have insured our family members and had minimal costs for their health care. Neither of us were expecting any long term health problems but like people as pets age the danger of a chronic ailment are a reality.
By protecting your pet with insurance you’ll find peace of mind in knowing you can care for them with out going into debt. Trust me pet insurance is worth the love you receive every day from your pet.
