Does The Age Of My Cat Or Dog Affect Insurance Premiums?
Your pet is full of unconditional love for you, no matter how old they are. It is important that you care for your cat or dog by protecting them against any mishaps or illnesses that they might suffer from.
Pets in a Pickle offer comprehensive, quality insurance for your four-legged friend. Some cat and dog owners think that because their pet is entering their golden years it will leave them out of pocket when it comes to taking out a policy. Whatever the age of the animal, it is important that they are covered in case they get themselves into a pickle!
Lifetime pet insurance
If you’ve adopted or bought a kitten or puppy at a young age then one of the first things you should do is choose an insurance policy that works for you, and for them. Lifetime Insurance from Pets in a Pickle offers cover for your feline friend and canine companion over the course of their life.
New accidents and illnesses (conditions) are covered up to the specified financial limit in each policy term. If the limit is reached during the policy term, the cover stops until the policy is renewed. At the renewal date, the limit is fully reinstated, and the condition(s) will continue to be covered.
🐾 This is subject to the insurer inviting the policy renewal and payment of premiums by the due date. No further cover will be provided beyond the cancellation or expiry date of the policy. Please be aware that you need to renew your policy each year for cover to remain in force.
Naturally, over the years your furry friend is going to visit the vet more often. They may require treatments and medication as they are more likely to develop a health condition.
The premium may increase each year due to rating factors such as age and claims made. If your pet suffers an illness during the policy term you may find it difficult obtaining cover for these conditions from other providers.
