The insurance has all kinds of exceptions and fees to deter you from using it until at least the “next time”, and the vet doesn’t moderate the treatments and checks. It’s always the full menu served. It’s an expensive business in the end, (but they are so cute though!).

Pet insurance typically will not cover costs associated with any disease or injury which began/occurred X number of years prior to the start of a policy. If a person put $180/month into a savings account when they got a puppy or young dog, after eight years, they'd have $17k, plus interest.

I get my dogs’ meds from Chewy and my grocery store pharmacy & it’s way cheaper.

We have a show dog that likes to get into trouble (as Cavaliers do). We have made better use of his health coverage than I care to admit

The cat is on her own though. >.>

I pay $180/mo in premiums for two senior dogs, and the policy reimburses 70% of non-routine care.

One dog had $13k worth of surgical procedures in 2025 and I never had to fight to get reimbursement or anything. The other dog takes $15/dose allergy medication, which by itself makes the policies worthwhile.]]>https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://socially.drinkingatmy.computer/objects/b9ff53a1-7e15-4b24-b9e5-1ece338259e3https://board.circlewithadot.net/post/https://socially.drinkingatmy.computer/objects/b9ff53a1-7e15-4b24-b9e5-1ece338259e3Sun, 19 Apr 2026 01:22:34 GMT<![CDATA[Reply to FYI for those in the US (at least) with expensive prescriptions for pets - Costco prices for pet meds is really good. on Sun, 19 Apr 2026 01:08:25 GMT]]>@jerry omg 😳

My kid's Rx allergy nasal spray is also available OTC, and Costco sells packs of 5 for the same price as 1 anywhere else (80% less!)
