The Gift of all Gifts - Pet Insurance
"Most people contact me when it is too late and they need their vet bill covered - they do not have pet insurance," says Juanita Aitkenhead, owner of PetHealthcare.co.za. "I feel so sorry for these people, as their emergencies are real. From dogs that have cut themselves to pieces from escaping fireworks to dachshunds suddenly going lame in their hind legs - these vet bills are all above at least ten thousand Rand, and these pet owners are desperate. Unfortunately by this time, we are unable to help them". Your pets deserve the best and only one year's worth of premiums will cover one medical emergency or ill health situation. Consider giving your pets Pet Insurance. The best time is as soon as possible because pre-existing health conditions will become excluded in the cover.
