25 17:22:37

Your cat might be getting older, but that doesn't mean you can't find insurance for your cat. Yes it's true that many pet insurance companies aren't interested in insuring older cats, but thankfully there are some, that are! Thankfully! And the best thing is, these companies come well recommended and won't cost the world either.

So now that you know that are quite a few decent pet insurance companies out there, and ones that are happy to insurance aging cats, it's time to think about what to look for in a policy.

Cheap isn't always good, as when it comes to insurance it can - but not always - mean that some things are left out. However, cheap - or reasonably priced - with all the essentials included is fantastic!

Some of the most common things to look out for when searching for a cat insurance policy - or just about any pet insurance policy - are the following:

* Vet Bills

 

*Advertising & Reward (should your furball go missing, the costs of finding it again are covered)

*Liability (Just in case it goes on a rampage)

*Death

*Emergency Boarding (should you have to go into hospital, your cat could be put up in a pet friendly hotel)

So that's what to look for. Now how much should you expect to pay? According to compareaholic's overview of older cat insurance policies, senior cat insurance in the UK starts from just under £8 per month and goes up to four or five times that.

As mentioned before, cheapest isn't necessarily best but neither is the most expensive either. There are plenty of discounted pet insurance policies which provide suitable cover at low prices.
