Protecting your pet is a year round responsibility which is becoming increasingly expensive.
Vets fees are rising by at least 15% a year, nearly five times inflation in the past seven years. For the owners of the one in three pets that need veterinary treatment at least once each year this can mean a lot of unexpected big bills.
Taking out a Petsure policy means you can budget for the cost of any care your cat or dog may need.
Most claims made for vet fees are for treatment of long term skin complaints in dogs and cats, something which can cost up to £700 a year.
A recent Mintel survey showed that 27% of all pet owners are worried about veterinary bills, and rightly so, when you see examples of how much treatment can cost:
| Treatment | Cost |
| Fractured leg | More than £1,000 |
| Diabetes | £700 in the first year |
| Ligament problems | More than £1,000 |
| Hip Replacement | More than £1,250 |
| Removal of a foreign object | Up to £600 |
| Skin problems | Up to £700 |
| Fractured pelvis | Up to £1,200 |
| Heart problems | £1,500 average |
| Tumour | Up to £3,500 |
But Petsure does not just provide cover for your animal’s illness or injury.
More claims are being made against pet owners for third party damage or injury than before – something for which Petsure provides cover of up to £1,000,000.
Should you be unable to go on holiday because your pet becomes ill or gets injured you can claim back up to £1,000 of your cancellation costs.
If you yourself have to go into hospital for longer than three days Petsure will provide boarding fees for your pet of up £500.
If your pet should be killed in an accident (or by a fatal illness if it is under 10 years old) or be stolen or lost, Petsure will pay out the value of your pet, depending on the level of cover you select.
