Pet Insurance

[casperandbruno]

Hi TGPF members! I’m looking for reliable pet insurance for piggies and is reasonable!
Does anyone have any experience ?

The only insurance In the UK that covers guinea pigs is Exotics Direct, so far as I know.

here is a link to a thread where it was discussed Pet Insurance - Experience?

I would say make sure to read the fine print. They have different levels of cover but I think there are some things they won’t cover in the beginning. You may be better off putting the money away in a pot. But there’s no harm in looking into it.

I have a “vet emergency money pot” and keep some aside in my savings rather than insurance as I find most companies either don’t cover, or don’t cover for common problems. Exotic insurance is quite expensive too (it was when I looked). Let me know if you find any good insurers!

I also have a vet fund rather than insurance. I prefer knowing I’ve got my vet account with enough money in it to cover any emergency/issue, no panicking over whether insurance would cover a particular problem

I too have a vet fund.
I save each month and so I know the money is there and will cover anything that is needed for the piggies - no exclusions.
