Pet Care Policies• Pet policies can be as confusing as coverage you buy for
yourself.
• Insurers place strict limits on how much they will pay for particular procedures.
• Policies can have tricky designs that can leave consumers with big out-of-pocket bills
• Premiums vary from around $10 a month to $75 a month

So you want to get pet insurance?
• Start by shopping around (review sites / policy inclusions).
• Do it while the animal is still young and healthy (lower premiums).
• A number of startup pet-insurance firms have gone out of business, so it is worth checking around companies’ life and growth.
