I got pet insurance for Riley the day I brought him home. I had Trupanion. I had a – 0 – Deductible and they reimbursed 90% of covered healthcare expenses, Minus the examination fees and routine preventative care. I forked out $187.50 in a 2-week period for examination fees for some ear infections Riley was having back in May, last year.
The insurance started at $32.68/month in July of 2010 and on the 1-year date, it jumped to $43.77/month.
I canceled it 2-months ago... Now I just have that $43.77 a month put into a Savings Account, which earns interest, which I have set aside for him. I also add $100.00 a month to that account… and he has his own Mastercard, so we should be okay in the event anything were to happen. |
