My cat's Chloe (6) and Oscar (10) both had a bad year, and I feel so grateful we had the savings because they ended up costing us around 11k within the span of 2 months, just a couple months back.
Oscar is diabetic, his bills were due to DKA/chronic pancreatitis related hospital stays- he doesn't qualify for illness insurance, only accident insurance.
Chloe was/is healthy except she ended up needing an emergency abdominal surgery. She qualified for illness/accident insurance, and given how much Oscar's diabetes treatment costs us, I feel like insurance is worth the price for peace of mind if she ever ended up with diabetes, for instance. She's a Maine Coon, so she's prone to certain disease's.
Anyways I was thinking about all of this about 20 minutes ago, typed "pet insurance" into Google, and progressive came up first/I recognized the name so I went with them very impulsively. I already signed her up for illness/accident coverage (28/month) and Oscar with accident coverage (6/month). I did some reading on old Reddit threads and am now getting the impression (most) people go with healthy paws. She could get a plan through them for $8 less per month. So I'm wanting to get people's experience with both, I haven't read about anyone yet getting Pet Best insurance.
