Why do I need cat insurance?

Cats make adorable companions that send many of us doolally in love. But as they’re one of the most independent pets we can have, our beloved kitties can sometimes return home with unexpected injuries that need treatment from a vet.

As a cat owner, you’ve made a commitment to provide and care for your fur buddy throughout their lifetime. Both through their healthy and not-so-healthy times. That means if anything does go wrong, it’s your responsibility to ensure they get the treatment they deserve.

If you don’t have the right cat insurance in place, you could end up paying hundreds if not thousands of pounds for the cost of veterinary treatment. And if you haven’t prepared for it, this can be a big blow to your savings or monthly pay packet!

But with vet bills rising year on year, cat insurance ensures you’re covered for any unplanned costs while your furry friend makes a full recovery. You’ll rest easy all year round knowing if your cat falls ill or has an accident, you won’t be out of pocket.

Here at 4Paws we have three different policy options to suit your cat’s needs and your budget. For just a small monthly cost, you’ll know both your cat’s wellbeing and your wallet are safe and sound under our wing.

With these bonuses, you’ll be like the cat that got the cream!
