What is Cat Insurance

Cat insurance helps cover unexpected veterinary expenses for your feline companion, such as accidents, injuries, and illnesses. It gives you the peace of mind you need to get your furry friend the care they need. 

How Does Cat Insurance Work?

Cat insurance works differently than your car or homeowners insurance. The process looks like this: 

  1. Choose a Plan: Select a plan that fits your needs and budget. 
  2. Pay Monthly Premiums: Once you've selected a plan, you'll pay a monthly premium to keep your coverage active. The cost depends on factors like your cat’s breed, age, location, and the coverage you choose. 
  3. Visit the Vet: If your cat needs care, take them to any licensed veterinarian. There’s no network you have to stay in! 
  4. Pay the Bill: After the vet visit, you’ll pay the bill upfront. Keep the invoice and any medical records related to the visit for the next step. 
  5. Submit a Claim: File a claim using the MyEmbrace member portal. You’ll need to include the invoice and medical records from the visit. 
  6. Get Reimbursed: After the claim is reviewed, you’ll be reimbursed for eligible expenses based on your plan's terms, such as deductible, reimbursement rate (e.g., 70%, 80%, or 90%), and annual coverage limit. 

What Does Cat Insurance Cover?

How much does cat insurance cost?

The GEICO Insurance Agency can help you get a customizable plan to fit your budget without sacrificing coverage. Along with the deductible, percent of reimbursement, and payout limits you choose, pricing is based on your location and your cat's breed, sex, and age. While the cost can vary greatly, you can usually get a comprehensive policy for your cat for $15-$45/month.

Cat Insurance FAQs

  • Is getting cat insurance worth it?
    We love our cats, but it's no secret they can be a little mischievous—we never really know what they're going to do! Getting cat insurance is worth it if you want to manage the financial risk of unexpected vet bills for accidents, injuries, or illnesses. It provides peace of mind by ensuring your cat can receive necessary care without worrying about high out-of-pocket costs.
  • At what age should I buy insurance for my cat?
    It's best to buy cat insurance when your cat is young and healthy because premiums will typically be lower, and your cat is less likely to have pre-existing conditions that could affect coverage. Most providers allow you to enroll kittens as early as eight weeks old. However, adult cats without pre-existing chronic conditions can also benefit from pet insurance.
  • Does cat health insurance cover spaying or neutering?
    Whether cat insurance covers spaying or neutering depends on your policy. Some insurers offer partial coverage for spaying and neutering under their wellness plans. However, it typically won't reimburse the entire cost of the procedure. It's best to speak with an insurance specialist to determine specific coverages.
  • Is getting cat insurance worth it for senior cats?
    Cat insurance can be worth getting for senior cats who have been relatively healthy throughout their lives or simply need wellness or accident-only care. However, no pre-existing conditions would be eligible for coverage.
  • What insurance is best for my cat?
    The best insurance for your cat depends on their health and needs and your budget. You can choose between accident-only, illness-only, wellness, or a combination of the three coverage options. When selecting your deductible, annual limit, and reimbursement percentage, make sure you consider your budget and what you can comfortably pay out of pocket for veterinary care.
