ASPCA | Pet Insurance Review

I have used ASPCA Pet insurance for my kitten for both emergency care as well as routine preventive medical care. I have found the claim process to be well organized, efficient and easy to use. I will definitely renew it again.

I purchased this insurance for my dog, Rocky, about a year ago. It has really helped in vet bills but we also had an unexpected accident last year and had to rush Rocky to the emergency vet. I don't know how I would have been able to afford the emergency care without ASPCA Pet Insurance.

I received a letter in the mail for ASPCA Pet Insurance shortly after spending hundreds of dollars for my dog, Spooky, to have bladder stone surgery. Since both Spooky and Waffles were over 10 years old, I realized that their health was likely to decline over the years and the costs would only increase. Waffles is no longer with us due to Cancer in 2008...ASPCA helped to cover the costs of his care and now Spooky has just completed treatment for a ruptured Anal gland and Vestibular Syndrome. I'm very thankful to have ASPCA Pet Insurance.

Last Fall, my cat Maisie was hit by a car and suffered a severely dislocated hip. By the time a neighbor found her and got her to me, too much time had passed for the vet to be able to pop the hip back in, so she had to have an expensive surgery to repair it. Between the initial diagnostic visit to the vet and the surgery, I ended up spending $1900, which is more than I could afford. If I hadn't known that insurance would pay a good portion of that, I would have had to put her down. With insurance, I recieved $1082 of that back after my deductible and some adjustments (the orthopaedist's charges were several hundred dollars over the reasonable and customary amount). Maisie still has a limp, but she's running and jumping and back to her old self thanks to ASPCA Pet Insurance. The staff are always a pleasure to work with (unfortunately this isn't the first time I've had to make a claim for Maisie), and the processing and payments are timely. I have two other cats and they are all insured for catastrophic coverage. I also now pay a littlbe bit extra each month for continuing coverage across enrollment periods. This is well worth it. In 2009, Maisie broke her foot at the end of a period, and the follow-up charges weren't covered, because they fell in the new year. I tell everyone I know to insure their pets. There's nothing sadder than having to put a pet down, because you can't afford to pay for a seriou illness or injury. The coverage I've had for Maisie's t

My latest rescue has been sick off and on since I got him and having this insurance has saved me a great deal of money. It is easy to file the claims online (if you have a scanner) and the turn around time is very reasonable. I also review other options before buying and I believe I made the right choice.
