Private Health Insurance

If you or a member of your family fall seriously ill you will want to take prompt action to get treatment. Whilst we know how good the NHS can be particularly in areas such as Accident & Emergency services with growing demands on its resources there can be long delays before treatment becomes available. Private Medical Insurance allows you to choose when and where you or your family receive treatment. It also speeds up the treatment process ensuring you get on the road to recovery quickly.

Term Life Insurance

Term life insurance plans pay a lump sum if the policyholder dies during a specified time period. They are designed so that family members won't suffer any financial hardship should the insured party die. Most policies have the option to include critical illness cover for an additional fee.

Critical Illness Insurance

Critical illness insurance plans pay the policyholder a lump should they be diagnosed with a critical illness. Illnesses covered vary from policy to policy, but commonly include: heart disease, strokes and cancer. Critical illness cover is designed as a financial safeguard for survivors of serious illness who haven't recovered sufficiently to return to work (not to be confused with medical insurance plans which cover the cost of treatment).

Which cat insurance is right for you?

Covered For Life - One of the most important considerations when choosing cat insurance depends on whether you are looking for lifetime cover for your cat to provide cover for long-term and recurring conditions such as diabetes or arthritis. Petplan's Covered for Life policies provide protection for ongoing conditions for the rest of your cat's life provided the policy is renewed each year without a break in cover. The vet fees benefit offered under our Covered for Life cat insurance policies ranges from £4,000 with Petplan Classic to £12,000 with Petplan Ultimate, our most comprehensive cat insurance plan. Other policy benefits include complementary treatment and advertising and reward.

12-month restricted cover– Petplan Essential is our 12-month time-limited cat insurance policy. The policy is designed for cat owners who want valuable protection against the high cost of veterinary treatment for a limited period after an illness or injury. It provides vet fees cover up to £3,000 per illness and injury for a maximum of 12 months from when the condition is first noticed. Petplan Essential has no upper age limit at policy inception so is ideal for cat owners considering insurance for an older cat and those who are concerned about conditions their cat may be prone to during old age.

Why Should I Take Out Cat Insurance?

Is cat insurance really necessary?

Owning a cat can be a rewarding and joyful experience but do they really have nine lives? Whilst many cats are perceived as hardy and independent, their inquisitive nature can lead them into the occasional scrape, especially when they are young kittens. Cats of any age are also notorious for their bold behaviour, especially on the roadside which is why taking out cat insurance is essential to protect you from unexpected vet bills. It's better to be safe in the knowledge that your cat is protected now rather than suffer any undue expense or, worse, heartache later on.

What is cat insurance?

Many vets believe owners underestimate the cost of treatment for their cat. So it's not surprising 9 out of 10 vets promote Petplan cat insurance to their clients (Headcount 2010).

Pet insurance has traditionally been viewed as a requirement for dogs rather than cats with some owners believing that their cats are more adept at overcoming the occasional illness or injury. However, the cost of veterinary treatment is almost equally as expensive for cats as it is for dogs. Vets use a variety of different procedures when diagnosing an illness or injury which can be very expensive. Cat insurance provides financial protection against the cost of veterinary treatment if your cat becomes ill or injured. As well as cover for veterinary fees, it can also cover costs associated with complimentary treatments such as acupuncture and homeopathy; loss of your cat by theft or straying, including a contribution towards advertising and reward; holiday cancellation and boarding fees.

Chocolate Eat Dogs

Chocolate

Most people know that chocolate is bad for dogs. The toxic agent in chocolate is theobromine. It's in all kinds of chocolate, even white chocolate. The most dangerous kinds, though, are dark chocolate, chocolate mulch, and unsweetened baking chocolate. Eating chocolate, even just licking the icing bowl, can cause a dog to vomit, have diarrhea, and be excessively thirsty. It can also cause abnormal heart rhythm, tremors, seizures, and death.

Alcohol

Beer, liquor, wine, foods containing alcohol -- none of it's good for your dog. That's because alcohol has the same effect on a dog's liver and brain that it has on humans. But it takes far less to do its damage. Just a little can cause vomiting, diarrhea, central nervous system depression, problems with coordination, difficulty breathing, coma, even death. And the smaller the dog, the greater the effect.

Foods Your Dog Should Never Eat

No matter how good you think the guacamole is, you shouldn't give it to your dog. Avocados contain a substance called persin. It's harmless for humans who aren't allergic. But large amounts might be toxic to dogs. If you happen to be growing avocados at home, keep your dog away from the plants. Persin is in the leaves, seed, and bark, as well as in the fruit.
