The pros of pet insurance

Life with a pet is full of unexpected moments. They eat things they shouldn’t, are forever getting into trouble and, just like us, can’t help but get sick from time to time.

That’s where pet insurance has your back. A pet insurance policy covers the cost when your cat or dog has an accident or falls ill – so you can get them the treatment they need without worrying about pricey vet bills.

What is lifetime pet insurance?

We know that your pet is a bona fide furry member of the family. They’re your therapy, your mood-booster, your happiness. So why would we ever want you to risk them running out of cover when they need it?

That’s why we only do lifetime pet insurance policies here at ManyPets.

It just means that whatever level of cover you choose, it’ll refresh each year when you renew your policy. You can claim up to the full vet fee limit every year and we’ll continue to provide cover for conditions your pet may develop during their lifetime.

So even if one year your pet needs treatment that costs an arm and a hind leg, you’ll still have the same amount of cover to fall back on after your policy renews.

How much does pet insurance cost?

Among other factors, the cost of your pet insurance in the UK will depend on:

Your pet’s breed

Their age

Where you live

How much your paid for your pet

Any pre-existing medical conditions they have

The policy you pick

The only way to know for sure is to get a pet insurance quote. Luckily, it only takes a few minutes.

What does our pet insurance cover?

Vet visits

Any consultation or examination that isn’t a routine check up.

Treatment

Medications and surgery recommended by a vet, depending on your chosen policy.

Diagnostic tests

Including blood, urine or stool tests, plus any scans like X-rays, MRIs and CT scans.

But that’s not all we cover

Missing pet

We’ll help with the cost of finding a lost or stolen pet with our Complete policy. You can add this as an option to our other policies.

Third-party liability

All of our policies include cover for if someone takes legal action against you and your dog.

Overseas travel

You can add cover for vet fees while you’re travelling abroad with your pet as an option with some of our policies. It’s included as standard on our Complete policy.

Emergency pet care

All our policies have some cover for looking after your pet if you have an unplanned hospital stay.

We provide cover where some others won’t

All of our pet insurance policies cover conditions that haven’t needed any treatment, medication or advice for two years or more. We also have a dedicated Pre-existing policy for pets that can cover more recent conditions. 

Our Complete pet insurance policy covers dental accidents and illness, as long as your pet’s had a dental check-up within the last twelve months, and you’ve followed any dental treatment recommended by a vet within six months. All our other policies cover dental accidents. 

We’ll cover behavioural treatment that’s needed as a result of an accident or injury when recommended by your vet.

If your pet is referred by a vet for hydrotherapy or another complementary therapy, you have cover within your vet fee limit. The level ranges from £500 to £2,500 depending on your policy.

We’ll cover any necessary out of hours treatment up to your vet fee limit, with no limits or exclusions, unless your vet advises that your pet can wait.

Pet insurance doesn’t usually cover pregnancy complications, but some of our policies will cover them in a first pregnancy only, after you’ve had your policy for six months.

What doesn’t pet insurance cover?

Pet insurance is for the unexpected – so it can’t cover you for the cost of routine vet trips like:

Vaccinations – The average cost of initial vaccinations in 2022 was £78 for a dog and £73 for a cat.

Microchipping – It’s inexpensive, but microchipping is now compulsory for cats as well as dogs.

Spaying and neutering – The average cost to neuter a dog in 2022 was £221 (male) and £299 (female). Cats were cheaper to neuter at £76 (male) and £107 (female) on average.

Preventative dental care – The cost of dental cleaning and other routine preventative dental appointments for your pet aren’t covered by pet insurance.

The ManyPets reviews are in

You don’t just have to take our word for it about our pet insurance. Here are just a few of the thousands of five-star reviews ManyPets members have written about our cover on Feefo.

“It's so easy with ManyPets”

It's so easy to use their service, everything online, and if it's not going to be immediate they tell you at the beginning. I can sleep at night because of them and my dog has had 2 cruciate ligaments done!

“Great service, first-class employees”

The claim process is straight forward and the employees were really helpful. Phone calls were handled quickly and with empathy.

“Wooftastic”

Website is very easy to use and went through getting a quote really easily. Looked at other insurance companies but this one offered exactly what I wanted at a very competitive price.

Pet insurance FAQs

All the questions you’ve ever wanted to ask about pet insurance.

How does pet insurance work?

When you take out a pet insurance policy, you’ll pay an annual or monthly premium to a pet insurance provider that’s bespoke to you and your pet. If they have an accident or fall ill, you can claim on your policy to cover the costs of any veterinary bills.

Although there are many types of pet insurance policy available, at ManyPets we only offer lifetime policies. That means whatever vet fee limit you pick, it’ll refresh each year when you renew your policy. You can claim up to the full vet fee limit every year and we’ll continue to provide cover for conditions your pet may develop during their lifetime.

A pet insurance policy will also usually cover some costs if your pet is lost or stolen, passes away, or has legal action taken against them.

How do I get a pet insurance quote?

Getting a pet insurance quote is easy. All you need to tell us is:

Your details and address

Your pet’s age

Your pet’s breed

Your pet’s gender

Your pet’s name

The price you paid for your pet

Your pet’s neutered status

Is pet insurance worth it?

Self-insurance is when people put money aside to cover potential vet costs rather than paying for an insurance policy.

The risk with it is that you don't know when your pet might need treatment and how much it will cost.

If you've only been saving for a few months and your pet has an expensive operation it's unlikely you'll have enough set aside. And if your cat or dog needs regular treatment it can quickly chip away at any savings.

If you have a lifetime pet insurance policy your vet fee limit will reset every year you renew. Our Complete policy would give you £15,000 of cover every year.

Even common issues like cuts and vomiting can cost hundreds of pounds to treat and more serious conditions can easily cost thousands. This is why many people choose to insure their pets.

What type of pet insurance is right for me?

If your pet hasn’t needed vet treatment, medicine or advice for a condition within the last two years, any of our Complete, Regular or Value policies will be suitable for them.

Our Pre-existing policy can provide cover for a pet that’s had a more recent health issue. We’ll cover a condition as long as your pet’s been free from treatment, medicine or advice for three months.

Does pet insurance cover vaccinations?

No, vaccinations aren’t covered by pet insurance because they’re classed as routine procedures.
