A five-star rated pet insurance product has been launched for owners of dogs and cats.
Halifax Pet Insurance and Halifax Pet Insurance eXtra are two pet insurance policies offered by Halifax General Insurance and monthly payments start from £3.50 for cats and £4.10 for dogs.
The pet insurance policies offer insurance cover of £1,000 and £6,000 respectively and covers annual fees for visits to the vet.
This amount will be available annually should the pet be diagnosed with a chronic condition that needs to be treated for the rest of its life.
In addition to what is offered by traditional pet insurance policies, the Halifax insurance policies also offer pet owners insurance cover if they need to advertise and offer a reward for lost pets.
Complementary and alternative therapies are also covered by the pet insurance policy.
And with a reported 50,000 dogs stolen every year, it is reassuring that the insurance policy also offers cover against ‘dog-napping’.
“Many other providers’ policies only offer cover on a per condition basis, meaning that once the limit for vets’ fees has been used up there is no further cover available for the conditions already treated,” commented the head of products at Halifax Pet Insurance, John Bennett.
“With Halifax Pet Insurance, pet owners can now get the necessary long-term treatment for their pets on an annual basis, without having to spend a fortune on vet’s fees.
“This is another example of how Halifax General Insurance strives to develop market leading products which better satisfy our customers’ needs.”
