Pet Insurance for Cats.

This should have you purring too. With pet insurance for cats, we’ll pay up to 80% of your eligible costs at any registered veterinarian throughout Australia. And if you choose to add Routine Care we will make a contribution towards the cost of vaccinations, de-sexing, micro-chipping, plus many other day to day health problems up to the Routine Care limit.
