John isnt alone in his dilemma. Without insurance, his situation seemed dire. Luckily, one of his friends set up a Save Pancake the Cat fundraiser through Facebook and MySpace.

How to Choose the Right Pet Insurance

In today’s world of escalating medical costs, pet insurance is almost a must. You never know when disaster will strike and veterinarian bills can easily cost as much as your doctor bills.

Consider for a moment that a gastric torsion (the intestines become entangled or the stomach flips) surgery can cost $4,000. Treatment for a heart condition might cost more than that. Cancer treatments can easily top $5,000. If you don’t have that kind of money to spare, seriously consider buying pet insurance so that your beloved pet can have the advantage of good medical coverage.

Before buying a pet insurance policy, check with several companies to compare policies. They are not all created equal! Read the fine print. Talk to other pet owners, breeders and trainers about their experiences with pet insurance.
