I have it 4 my ragdoll cat since he was a kitten 5yrs ago, havent had 2 claim on it yet, (& kinda hoping i never will) it costs us 25.50 a month, 4 the premium cover.
i really wish i had taken it out with my staffy as he was hit by a car & killed recently. & altho we could never 'replace' him, it would have been nice to have the money to get my daughter a 'new' friend as she misses our Diesel dog terribly.

so anyways, i highly reccomend it.]]> Wed, 20 Apr 2011 15:19:24 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1310026&title=pet-insurance#1310026 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309776&title=pet-insurance#1309776 Author: Red

I think I am on the Ultra Plan, guess it depends on how you want to spend. For my cat I think it is about $320 a year approx on that plan but it does have one of the higher levels of cover and am not really wanting to go to a lower plan as he is getting on a bit now.

We have been with Ellenco for about 7 years, the premiums have gone up since we first joined, but yes they seem to be one of the cheapest as I look around at others every now and again. I would not have another pet now without insurance.]]> Wed, 20 Apr 2011 10:19:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309776&title=pet-insurance#1309776 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309742&title=pet-insurance#1309742 Author: GuestGuest

I've been thinking about this as well monkeys because we have 2 dogs and a cat and we seem to spend a lot of our time (and cash) at the vets! Will need to read into it more, thanks for the company recommendation ]]> Wed, 20 Apr 2011 09:41:49 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309742&title=pet-insurance#1309742 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309698&title=pet-insurance#1309698 Author: JessDub

We use Ellenco surgery plan for our dog. Haven't claimed on it yet but it's there if she needs any surgery. Worth the $15 a month for peace of mind IMO.

Our friend's dog broke its leg and I think it cost them around $4500. If that happened to our pooch we simply could not afford that kind of bill without insurance.]]> Wed, 20 Apr 2011 09:15:17 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309698&title=pet-insurance#1309698 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309695&title=pet-insurance#1309695 Author: monkeys

Yes, highly recommend it! We are through Ellenco. their website is www.petplan.co.nz. My cat has had two blocked bladders which was $1K a pop to treat and we got 80% of this back both times. I used to wonder whether it was worth it cos we hadn't claimed for anything major and then that happened and we realised how valuable it was.]]> Wed, 20 Apr 2011 08:51:14 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309668&title=pet-insurance#1309668 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309525&title=pet-insurance#1309525 Author: mrsturtle

Hey there,
Just wondering who has it?
Have you had to claim?
What company do you use?
Is it worth going for surgery only or a higher plan?

TIA! Since I don't have my BFP yet, our 2 cats are our kids, so thinking we should get insurance...]]> Tue, 19 Apr 2011 20:28:06 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=38869&PID=1309425&title=pet-insurance#1309425
