I would appreciate hearing from anyone who has Pet Insurance and would recommend the Insurers? Equally, if you were disappointed with a Company, it would be helpful to know.
If it helps I have short-listed the following:
LV (Liverpool & Victoria)
Animal Friends
John Lewis
Sainsburys
The Co-Op Insurance
VetsMediCover
Lifetime Pet Cover
Any comments on those or any other would be greatly appreciated. (Pet Insurance is no easy task)!!

I use Legal & General for my little dog, they offered the most options so I could tailor make the cover I wanted. Went direct to them rather than through a comparison site, so I could discuss with them exactly what I needed.

until recently I was with Animal Friends, and had been for several years with no problems. I have cancelled the policy because I discovered that my rescue **bleep** was a lot older than I was led to believe when I got her and therefore the policy I had taken out was technically fraudulent, and the cost for a much older animal (which she was) was beyond my reach. I was with A.F. for a previous dog and made endless claims which were always paid promptly. It is always best to take out a lifetime policy that will pay out for the life of the dog rather than for a fixed period of illness. I've never used Pet Plan but have heard good reports of them as well. Hope this is a bit of help

My rescue "bleep" was actually a female, and I used the correct word for a female dog!!!!! Seems the English language is no longer suitable for Ebay

Couldn't agree more Myra.

I used Pet Plan for my cat, as my vet recommended them.
I got 3 months free when I had her microchipped
They paid the vet fees direct to my vet when she was ill, but did not pay for euthenasia, but I knew that as it was stated in the policy.
I now have another cat, and he is also insured with Pet Plan

My cats are insured with Animal Friends. They seem like a good company. They support good causes too.
