1) How do you usually pay for vet care? (Credit, Fund specifically for pets, Savings, etc)
Usually just write a check, I budget for routine care s the funds are there when it's time for vaccinations, meds, etc. We've used credit for emergency care.
2) Do you have pet insurance? Why/Why not?
Yes, we bought it after racking up nearly $2,000 in 45 days just for diagnositic testing & limited treatment on last year on Sherman. We went with a policy that covers emergencies & diagnostics, but it doesn't cover routine or dental. With the costs of vet care going up like it is, I think it's worth having ins.. We can cover both dogs for several years for a lot less than we spent in that 45 days during a crisis.
3) Do you feel knowledgable about the topic of pet insurance? Would you like to be better informed?
We studied several different policies, picked what best fit our situation, but I'm sure there's a lot more we could learn about it.
This is a my "semester project" (I have to write 3 papers on this topic) so I might keep adding questions to this thread to get feedback, any answers would be helpful and the more the better!
Thanks![/QUOTE]
