Over the course of a pet’s lifetime, for both cats a dogs, pet ownership can cost on average between £16,000 and £33,000!. This cost is very dependent upon the type of pet that you have, but you must be sure to have everything covered in order to ensure you pet has the best throughout their life and you avoid any unexpected bills.
Some of the things to consider include:
- Pet Insurance
- A Pet Health for Life Plan
- The cost of emergency vet bills
- Animal Health Certificates
- End of Life costs
The list of costs to consider can be extensive for pets with costs at every turn, but with the right health plan and insurance in place, this can help spread the cost of your pet’s healthcare.
