Are you questioning whether or not pet insurance is the right decision for you? Well, I don’t have just 1 reason why you should get it… I’ve got 13!
When it comes to specialised writing I’ve always known that I lucked out when I put my focus on pet insurance. So few industries offer the same level of exceptional benefits as this one. Pet insurance is so incredibly easy to write for because its perks are plentiful.
And here’s all the proof you need.
1. It’s your best health ally
It is easy to claim that you prioritize the health and well-being of your pet, but it is a completely different thing to abide by that statement. By taking out a comprehensive pet policy, you ultimately have a health ally and accountability partner. They will ensure that you remain committed to your pet by offering them the healthiest and happiest life possible.
2. They fill the gaps in your knowledge
The reality is that just because we love our pets doesn’t mean that we fully understand what it means to take care of one. And that is okay.
You aren’t expected to know everything… your insurer is. By leaning on their knowledge and insights you will be able to map out a holistic care plan that is catered specifically to your pet’s personal needs.
3. It covers the frequencies of accidents
There are a number of things that we can do in order to keep our pets out of harm’s way. Any quick Google search will show you exactly how to pet-proof your home. However, no amount of safety tips will keep you safe from the fact that accidents do happen.
In fact, one of the top regrets most pet owners have is not taking our coverage to help cover these specific costs. 1 in 3 pets will experience some kind of medical emergency, so ensure that you are covered in the event that you form part of this statistic.
4. You get to choose your own vet
At first glance, this may seem like a pretty trivial point but there is something incredibly comforting about this benefit. Have you ever been in the midst of a medical emergency and had to go and sit through a list of network doctors in your area?
Not only is it incredibly frustrating but time-consuming and impractical. Having the power to choose your own vet means that your comfort and convenience are being prioritized. You choose whichever vet is closest, most affordable and proactive in their desire to help protect your pet.
5. It grants you peace of mind
When you take out a pet policy, you will experience a sigh of relief like never before. Instead of making decisions based on your finances, you can now make a decision that is in your pet’s best interest.
With pet insurance, long gone are the days of economic restraints minimizing your medical options… The sky is now the limit!
6. Hereditary illnesses are common… and covered
When picking out a pet, the last thing that you’ll be thinking of is whether or not they have heredity illnesses. And in a way, it’s understandable. You’re already thinking about potential names, and how you will overspend on every pet toy and snack.
These elements are all fun and well, however, you cannot ignore the importance of understanding your pet breed’s medical background. With pet insurance, however, this knowledge is a lot less daunting. This coverage will ultimately step in and help you figure out the best course of action when it comes to covering all of those related illness costs.
7. You get money in your pocket when you need it
Who doesn’t like the feeling of having a little extra cash in their back pocket? Well, that’s a feeling you can expect to feel with pet insurance. The truth is that we may not all have access to necessary funds whenever our pet is in need.
With an ever-increasing list of debit orders and financial responsibilities, it’s easy for your pet’s health to slip down the priority list.
Thankfully with comprehensive pet insurance, you will be able to access money whenever you need it in order to take your pet over to the vet. This means that regardless of your financial predicament, your pet will still be able to receive the medical care they deserve.
8. Pet bills are covered
As someone that has spent a number of times in a vet’s office, let me save you the future chest pains and tell you now that vet bills aren’t cheap. In fact, they aren’t even affordable.
They can essentially push you into medical debt if you are not careful. Thankfully with pet insurance, you are shielded from taking the brunt of these bills.
9. You get access to exceptional routine care
As much as we are pet owners, there are a number of other titles that we hold…from husband/wife, human parent, employee etc. our memory can wear a little thin when it comes to fulfilling everyone’s exact needs.
With pet insurance, your policy provider will become your gentle reminder of all the routine care needs your pet will need going forward. In order to maintain their health, they will ensure that future issues are less likely to come up. From regular vet visits to necessary shots and vaccines, your policy will help remind and help cover those costs all for you.
10. It is an essential form of preventive care
As a responsible pet parent, it is in your best interest that you fully understand what preventative care is and enforce it in your everyday life – not only for your pet. Preventive care allows your vet to detect and treat any underlying health concerns before they develop into something more serious and more expensive to treat.
11. It addresses the fact that dental issues lead to heart failure
Did you know that poor oral hygiene can lead to heart issues in your pet?
As crazy as this may sound, it happens when bacteria from your pet’s gums move into their bloodstream, leading to inflammation of the blood vessels and other heart problems. Thankfully your pet insurance policy will cover dental care, ensuring that you proactively take care of your pet’s oral health, which in turn, will take care of their physical health.
12. It caters to your budget
One thing I can say with complete confidence is that pet insurance was designed with pet owners in mind, especially from a financial perspective. With pet insurance, you have the luxury of choosing a plan that fits your budget.
You can choose from accident-only coverage to full-fledged comprehensive cover – the option is yours! The best part is that you will notice how the costs are all affordable, regardless of the policy you opt for.
13. It’s the secret to being the best pet parent
There are a lot of elements involved in being a responsible pet owner and at times it can feel incredibly overwhelming. However, the key to protecting, loving and supporting your pet throughout their life is with the helping hand of pet insurance.
