Keep them purring with MORE THAN cat insurance

More about our cover levels
Basic
Also known as Time Limited. Our Basic policy provides cover for each new accident or illness for a period of 12 months from the first date of treatment or until your chosen vet fee limit is reached, whichever happens first.
Classic
Also known as Maximum Benefit, our Classic policy provides cover for vet fees up to your chosen vet fee limit for each new accident or illness. There is no time limit in which you can use your vet fee limit.
Premier
Also known as Lifetime cover, our Premier policy provides cover for vet fees up to your chosen vet fee for each new accident or illness each year. As long as you renew your policy with no break in cover, the vet fee limit is reinstated each year.
Premier policies bought before 20 March 2022
If you took out a pet insurance policy with us before 20 March 2022, different limits may apply.
If your policy has both a total vet fee limit as well as a limit per accident or illness, then both these limits will apply until notified at renewal. Depending on the level of cover selected, your policy will either be subject to a total vet fee limit of £4,000 (with each accident or illness limited to £1,000 of vet treatment) or £12,000 (with each accident or illness limited to £4,000 of vet treatment) each year.
If your policy has a total vet fee limit only, then this will remain unchanged.
More details on the vet fees limits that apply to your policy can be found in your schedule, or on your policy documents. If you're unsure, get in touch.
