Pet Insurance - Need YOUR Help!

[Ginger's Mom]

1) How do you usually pay for vet care? (Credit, Fund specifically for pets, Savings, etc)
I used to pay by check or credit card. However, in the beginning of this year I when I decided to add another dog to the family, I opened up an account just for the dogs needs, and have been using that for their food and health costs.
2) Do you have pet insurance? Why/Why not?
Unfortunately, it is just too expensive. I have not had any instances where I have wished that I have had it (knock wood), so I haven't felt the need to put out that much money monthly. The less expensive plans, don't cover enough for me to feel it is worthwhile, and the ones that can really be helpful are much too expensive.
3) Do you feel knowledgable about the topic of pet insurance? Would you like to be better informed?
I am sure there are plans out there with which I am not familiar. I am always willing to learn more on animal/pet topics.

1) How do you usually pay for vet care? (Credit, Fund specifically for pets, Savings, etc)
I either pay cash or charge it (and pay the balance off at the end of the month)
2) Do you have pet insurance? Why/Why not?
No. Most of the cats I have are considered special needs. Since pet insurance is medically underwritten it is unlikely any of them would even qualify. If they did, the rates would be very expensive.

I feel knowledgable, but it never hurts to learn more
