Why it’s worth getting cat insurance

Luke Mallion, our in house vet, seated.

"Once in a while, your cat may come home with an unexpected injury or illness that needs vet attention. Vet bills can mount up, but cat insurance can help you cover costs and provide peace of mind. Did you know, Hyperthyroidism is our most common cat illness claim with an average of £1,173 paid out."
Luke Mangion, MORE THAN vet. MORE THAN data from January 2022 to December 2023.

  • If an underlying illness causes tooth decay or gum disease
  • To remove teeth to treat an illness that is not gum disease or tooth decay
