quote: The insurance company have basically paid £30 towards the vet bills, because they put a massive excess on, and wont pay out a penny on his death - as horrible as it sounds to mention money, he did cost mum over a grand (although the breeder has offered us a pup in her next litter, which mum will be taking her up in the new year). And to top it off they are making it as hard as possible for her to cancel it. How can she be expected to pay for insurance on a dead dog is beyond dreadful, especially as she is so upset.
These insurers don't seem to understand that our pets aren't a commodity like a car... they've been so horribly unsympathetic :(
This is what iv'e found to,mine started of very cheap,then went up and up each time.Plus like you say,its very very hard to claim if you ever do want to.
quote: have recently been to the vets with my rat snake that cost £106 for the consultation(£46) and course of meds
see the reptile vet near me,charges a very low consultation fee,last visit cost me £15,with 30 mins of the guys time.
Even used a call out vet,at 2am and it didn't come to £106 with meds. |

All the vets close to me are like cats and dogs only,Like i said the only reptile vet is around 30 miles from me.and he don't work everyday there.So the appointment times can be lame. |
