Quick, easy, puts our mind at ease
We had an emergency with our 3 yr old Pomeranian one night, she had something stuck in her esophagus & was clearly choking / could not breath. It was a moment of sheer terror as she began throwing up white foam non-stop & could not control her bowels. Her gums had turned a purple color & her eyes were bloodshot & bulging out of her head. Panicking, we brought her in to the Animal Emergency Hospital & luckily they were able to do a scope procedure immediately which saved her & also, luckily did not further damage her esophagus, which would have required invasive surgery to fix. There was no price we wouldn't have paid to save our little one's life, but remembering that we had pet insurance really helped put our mind at ease & focus on what was most important, helping our pommie recover. Trupanion was very hassle-free, quick & easy. The hospital helped us submit the claim & almost immediately, Trupanion had our checks in the mail. The turn-around time was impressive & they followed up with many emails regarding the claim & to check up on our pommie. No one thinks about pet insurance, but it was definitely worth it to invest in it as it gave us one less thing to worry about in an already stressful moment while we waited for the status of our dog after the procedure. I would definitely recommend Trupanion & am so glad our Vet suggested pet insurance to us when we first brought our puppy home.

Fabulous Experience
It was only a couple of months after we signed up with Trupanion that our puppy Izzy (chihuaua/beagle mix, we think!) was diagnosed with an Inguinal Hernia. We took her in for surgery and our vet handled the submission of the claim directly. Trupanion worked very quickly and contacted the prior vets for complete medical history records, and in short order approved and paid the claim. It took less than a week since they received the claim. They kept us well informed of the claim status as it was received and progressed. This incident alone paid for our first year of premiums. We were very impressed with the entire experience.

Quick response to claims
My cat had pancreatitis and uroabdomen. Trupanion paid the claims for both his regular vet and for the emergency clinic before my credit card bill was due! I've had a couple of smaller claims since insuring my pets, but this one was over $1,500 and they paid the full 90% less the office visits. It would have been tough managing without insurance, and I probably would not have been able to get him the 24 care he needed the first night.
