What do you guys think of pet insurance? Is it worth it?

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

Depends. We have three cats, it was honestly worth more to us to chuck the X amount per month we would have paid in insurance into a savings account instead. We got 2k stashed in there atm (and this is with a cat with an ongoing renal condition), unlike insurance it covers EVERYTHING

But if you have a large dog and can get one that covers joint problems, I can see the worth.

Read the condition carefully. With all the exemptions personally I found it cheaper to go to Lort Smith and pay .
