Why pet insurance is worth it for your pet.
Thanks to new veterinary advancements, there are better diagnostics & treatments available to our pets than ever before. But they often come at a high cost. In fact, over a pet’s lifetime, families can expect to spend $16,100+ on vet care for dogs6 and $12,000+ on vet care for cats!8 From common infections, to chronic illnesses, to catastrophic injuries, dogs and cats can get sick or hurt unexpectedly at any life stage.
When ruh-rohs or cat-astrophes happen, Pumpkin insurance plans can give you peace of mind knowing you have help protecting your pet’s health when it matters most. They can help you say ‘yes’ to the best care possible by paying you back 90% of covered vet bills. After you’ve met your annual deductible, a Pumpkin plan can cover $1,800 of an eligible $2,000 emergency vet bill. Just imagine how much it could save you over your fur kid’s life!

Some top pet insurance questions we get asked all the time...
What is pet insurance?
From everyday illnesses to emergency accidents, the unexpected costs of veterinary care can really add up over a pet’s life. If your dog or cat gets hurt or sick, pet insurance (AKA insurance for accidents & illnesses) can reimburse you for a large portion of any covered vet bills. This can make it easier to provide your pet with the best care possible – even when it comes at a high cost – and save thousands on medical expenses over their lifetime.

How much is pet insurance?
Do Pumpkin plans cover pre-existing conditions?
Pumpkin plans, like most pet insurance plans, don’t cover “pre-existing conditions” that occur or show symptoms before coverage starts or during a waiting period. However, if a pre-existing condition is curable (e.g., UTI, paw fracture), was cured, and has been free of symptoms and treatment for 180 days, Pumpkin plans would cover it if it occurs again in the future, with the exception of knee & hind leg ligament conditions. If a knee or hind leg ligament condition occurs prior to the day after you purchase your Pumpkin plan or during the waiting period, any future ones won’t be covered.
It’s important to note that not all plans will cover eligible cured pre-existing conditions that occur again in the future, so this is definitely a plus with Pumpkin insurance plans! All that said, having an incurable pre-existing condition, or a knee or hind leg ligament condition, doesn’t mean you shouldn’t join the Pumpkin pack! Even if your pet has a pre-existing condition, you can always enroll them and get covered for new conditions that develop down the road. Have questions?

Are pet insurance plans and pet health insurance the same thing?
Some providers refer to their plans as pet health insurance, but this isn’t always the most accurate description as pet insurance plans are not the same as human health insurance. They work differently, and remember that pet insurance plans are designed to cover accidents and illnesses rather than all types of pet health care. It may seem odd, but pet insurance actually falls under property & casualty insurance.
Do all vets take pet insurance?

Which pet insurance covers dental?
Unlike some pet insurances, Pumpkin plans cover dental illnesses (including periodontal disease AKA gum disease), along with any exams, X-rays, treatment, surgery, and prescription meds used to diagnose or treat them. Pumpkin plans also cover tooth extractions for dental injuries.
Pumpkin plans do not cover annual dental cleanings and certain cosmetic or elective services. For a full list of what Pumpkin insurance plans do and don’t cover, check out a sample policy.
Does pet insurance cover vaccines?
That said, we know insurance alone won’t solve your pet’s health & wellness needs. It’s why we worked with vets to create a unique wellness package called Preventive Essentials. Preventive Essentials isn’t insurance, but an optional benefit you can add to your Pumpkin insurance plan if you want refunds for annual wellness exam fees, important vaccines, and key parasite screening tests pets need to stay healthy and disease-free! We offer different packages based on your pet’s species and age. Click on the link that applies to your pet below.
