Petsure supports pets with superpowers

Before you ask… yes you can have my paw-tograph. You might have heard of me? I'm a superdog with superpowers.

No? Oh. The humans at the vets ALL know me as soon as I walk in. That's how I know I'm a superdog. I even get extra special treatment.

You see, I've woken up at the vets so many times. Often looking like a lamp but feeling surprisingly okay about it all. It's all a bit surreal. This is when I assume they top me up with my superpowers.

But being a superdog comes at a price. What do they say? With great power comes great responsibility? I'm sure that was about me.

Because I have these superpowers, the humans say it makes me more expensive and that I get more expensive every year to cover. They must be talking about my superhero cape. I also hear them sighing everytime they have to put their money rectangle into the blooper at the vets.

The humans were once whispering to the lady next to us while we were waiting at the vets (but I heard as I have super hearing) that we're stuck with my pet insurance.

I'm not quite sure where it's stuck, but I've been chasing my tail ALL week trying to find it on me.

Apparently, not all pet insurers like pets with superpowers - like me. They must be supervillains to not love a superhero like me.

But then the humans found Petsure. They said that we weren't trapped anymore! That they accept pets with superpowers, like me.

Isn't that super?

A note from Petsure

With our pet insurance, you can cover pre-existing conditions (sorry, we mean superpowers).

That means no more feeling trapped by your existing policy.

When you switch to us with cover to the same level, there's no waiting periods.

There's also no compulsory excesses, and no upper age limits, so you're in control.

Types of pet insurance

There are different types of pet insurance available, so you should think about which is the most appropriate for your pet.

Lifetime cover

Lifetime cover offers extensive cover throughout your pet's life. In some cases, your pet insurance provider may only pay out a certain amount per year, while in other cases, there'll be a fixed payout limit per condition each year.

At Petsure we offer lifetime pet insurance cover for cats and dogs with no upper age limit. Our lifetime dog and cat insurance can even cover recurring or chronic conditions with vet fees up to £15,000 each year.

Time-limited cover

Time limited insurance is considered a more affordable option for pet owners. But, it only covers newly diagnosed conditions for a limited time. For example, each new illness or injury is covered for a year, after which your insurance provider will no longer pay out.

Maximum benefit insurance

Unlike time-limited cover, maximum benefit insurance doesn't have a time limit but it does have a financial limit. This means pet owners can make multiple claims for the same illness or injury up to a certain amount. Once that limit is reached for that condition, however, the pet owner has to then fork out the costs for any further vet treatment.

Accident-only pet insurance

Accident-only pet insurance tends to be the cheapest type of pet insurance as it only covers injuries, so your pet wouldn't be covered if they fell ill.

Pet insurance for older dogs and cats

Most other providers have restrictions for older pets, usually if your dog is over the age of eight, or over 10 for cats, so you may find the cost rises. Or you might be expected to pay more of the bill if you need to claim and you might not have the same options to buy a new policy as a younger pet might. This is because the older they get, the more likely they are to get an illness or injury.

We don't discriminate. Unlike some other insurers, we don't set an upper age limit or enforce compulsory co-payments for older pets.

Multi-pet insurance

If you have more than one pet, it's often more affordable to get multi-pet insurance where you can cover several pets as part of one policy.

But not all multi-pet policies are created equal. Some pet insurance providers only allow you to choose the exact same policy for each of your pets instead of being able to tailor your limits to each of your pets needs.

We can cover a mix of up to eight cats or dogs on a single policy. But we also give you the option of tailoring the level of cover for each pet - including excess payments and optional extras.
