Pet insurance - Tips & Advice - Understanding pet insurance

Because everyone’s pet is different, we offer a flexible approach to insuring your cat, so you can choose the level of cover you want

As a cat owner, vets’ fees are by far the biggest expense you are likely to face – according to the December 2005 Mintel report, approximately one in two pet owners have taken their animal to the vet unexpectedly in the last two years – and fees can mount up quite quickly if your cat is injured or ill. Our Essential policy  offers 12 months’ cover of up to £4,000 for each new injury or illness, while our Advanced policy  gives up to £6,000 for each new condition, with no time limit on reaching that amount. Cover starts from £6 per month and you can receive an extra discount if you buy online. We can even arrange to pay the vet directly, if you prefer.

Whichever policy you opt for, there are helplines to help you Find A Vet, get Pet Bereavement Counselling or to get Legal Advice - call 0870 600 0633 for more information.

It all adds up to an unbeatable package from Direct Line, so get a quote for your cat insurance now.
