Vetinsurance known as trupanion in usa has been wonderful
I chose 0% deductible and it covers 90% of the bill:D

Hi automaton 2,
I really approve of people insuring their pets, definately its peace of mind for pet owners, and it allows vets to do their job without having to worry about the cost of the bill for the owners (which can be a worry for vets, if you run a small 'family' vet practice and have known your clients for many years, and are friends with them).
I don't know much about this insurance company, have you used them for a long time, have they helped?
Have you tried other companies? What is your 'testimonial' about their service?
Thanks

yes, I use pet Insurance for wobble. We use Petplan, its pretty good, they pay out really fast and sometimes if the bill is high the vet can do a 'direct claim' where the insurance company just pays the vet directly :p

First, disclaimer: I work for Embrace Pet Insurance in Cleveland, Ohio.
I'm glad you're asking questions about pet insurance for your kitten. There is so much information floating around about it and not all of it is correct.
What makes a good pet health insurance policy? My opinion is straightforward: insurance is a promise to reimburse you so one of the main elements of a good policy is full and open disclosure of *everything* that is and is not covered. If you look just at price you are not getting the whole picture.
I encourage you to look at major medical pet insurance (yes, it exists, our company offers it). The idea behind it is you get a plan with a higher deductible and this can dramatically lower your premium, in some cases by 30 to 50%. You can get a major medical pet insurance plan for around $20 to 25 per month per dog (cheaper for cats) and still have coverage for most everything (except routine stuff of course).
Pet insurance buys you peace of mind so that if something bad, expensive, and unexpected happens then your pet is protected.
You should buy pet insurance because you want to be *prepared* in case something bad happens. Remember, insurance is the one thing you can't buy when you need it the most so plan accordingly.
