Insurance for your Pets.......

Dog Insurance: Dogs can be very enthusiastic sometimes, it's one of the many reasons we love them so much. But sometimes that enthusiam can get their owners into trouble.

If your dog were to run out into the road and cause an accident, or accidentally cause damage to someone else's property you would be liable for paying compensation to the injured parties. This could run into hundreds of thousands of pounds, possibly millions. Having public liability cover as part of your dog insurance policy ensures you are protected from such claims.

Cat Insurance: Being independent souls, cats are always able to get themselves into scrapes. But sometimes they can pick up severe injuries and require veterinary care, which can be prohibitively expensive.

Cat insurance gives you the peace of mind that you will be able to afford the best treatment for your cat if he or she becomes injured or ill.

There are many kinds of pet insurance cover; some limit payouts to the first 12 months of a claim, which means lifelong illnesses, such as diabetes, won't be covered after the first year.

Policies that offer full lifetime cover give protection against the costs of ongoing illnesses, giving you peace of mind so you can enjoy your cat's company without worrying about their healthcare.

We offer a range of policies both with and without lifetime cover giving you the flexibility to choose the best option for you and your cat.

Why Buy Pet Insurance?
Many worry about the high cost of vets' fees and believe pet cover / pet insurance gives them the peace of mind that their friend will be cared for through illness or injury. Sometimes pets fall ill and require treatment for several years; diabetes or arthritis are two examples. Only a Lifetime Policy would cover such ongoing illnesses; many pet life cover policies limit cover to 12 months. So look at the terms before you buy

That's Great, But What Is Pet Life Cover and Why Is It Different?
Lifetime Pet insurance cover is essential if your pet were to develop an ongoing condition such as diabetes or arthritis which can be quite common. These conditions would require treatment year after year. Our Prestige Policy will give you up to a massive £40,000 vets’ fee cover per condition for life. Our Superior Policies also offer huge levels of vets’ fee cover per condition for life - £20,000 for with our Superior Cover and £30,000 with our Superior Plus cover.

All our lifetime policies also offer many other benefits – including free overseas travel cover. So if your pet is diagnosed with an ongoing condition in year one our lifetime policies will go on to give you protection year after year throughout your pet’s life as long as you renew your policy - See the difference?

In Summary
Some people think about putting money aside each month instead of insuring but would this cover the vet's fees resulting from a catastrophic injury? What those people also forget is that they can be held legally liable for their pet's actions, especially in our "compensation culture"; that's why pet insurance includes generous levels of Public Liability cover - such claims can run into hundreds of thousands of pounds.

So insuring your pet is the sensible choice to protect not only your pet but your monthly budget; and only by choosing AFI will you also be helping animals in desperate need all over the world!

Profits from Animal Insurance Protect Endangered Gorillas in the Congo

Last December, Animal Friends Insurance chose to support the charity Gearing Up For Gorillas (G4G - www.g4g.co.uk), by helping with funding for vital projects to save the majestic mountain gorillas in the war torn Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). AFI report that they are already making a difference. Funding has enabled the feeding and care of three orphan baby gorillas at a sanctuary in Goma. Ndeze and Ndakasi are two mountain gorillas and Mapendo an eastern lowland gorilla.

G4G representative Linda Nunn commented, “The milk powder for baby gorillas is very expensive (especially at the moment with insecurity and travel issues), and the ranger/care givers have to go further to fetch forest food for them every day. They're obviously having to go further to quieter areas or pay local people to fetch it from afar for them and that all takes money. Funds from AFI will keep Ndeze, Ndakasi and Mapendo fed and looked after for some time.”

The UN has declared 2009 to be the official “Year of the Gorilla” to raise awareness of their plight and the efforts of rangers who risk their lives to protect them. Animal Friends is proud to support this cause and aims to assist in the campaign.

G4G works to assist park rangers who have limited resources and whose work place is one of the most dangerous in the world. Many rangers and their families have been living in trenches because of the war. Over the last decade, more than 100 rangers have been killed while on duty in DRC.

Five National Parks in DRC are classified as ‘World Heritage Sites – in Danger’. These five sites are the last refuge for many of the worlds endangered and threatened species. In eastern DRC, the Virunga National Park is home to around half of the last remaining mountain gorillas. The gorillas are under intense threat – as are the brave rangers who work there. In January, ranger Safari Kakule was attacked and killed. AFI has started to provide funding to directly help these courageous rangers.

Animal Friends Insurance can help protect your pet against the rising costs of pet insurance - you can buy pet insurance online quickly and easily, and they have a range of policies to suit every need and budget. As an ethical insurer, Animal Friends Insurance is the only UK pet insurance company which donates one hundred percent of its net profits to helping animal charities and welfare organisations all over the world.
