Vet insurance is a unique form of health insurance designed especially for pets. It provides financial cover for a large share of the costs involved in the medical care of your dog or cat. Whether it is an unexpected illness, an accident or routine medical care such as vaccinations, vet insurance makes sure you are not faced with unpleasant financial surprises.
When your pet falls ill or gets injured, a visit to the vet can quickly become expensive. Treatments such as surgery, specialist examinations or long-term medication can cost considerably more than you might expect. With vet insurance you have far less to worry about, because many of these costs are reimbursed in full or in part. That gives you the reassurance that you can always provide the best care, whatever your financial situation.
Alongside emergency treatment, vet insurance can also include preventive care, such as vaccinations and annual check-ups. This preventive care is essential to safeguard your pet’s long-term health and to detect conditions at an early stage. It protects not only your pet, but also your own peace of mind.
In short, vet insurance is more than just a financial safety net. It is an investment in the health and wellbeing of your pet, so you can be sure that your furry friend receives the care he or she deserves, without you having to worry about sky-high vet costs.

During a vet consultation the vet examines your pet to establish what is wrong. This may be necessary for vague symptoms such as fatigue, weight loss or changes in behaviour. Sometimes further examination is needed, such as listening to the heart or checking the eyes. Vet insurance can cover the cost of these consultations and examinations in whole or in part, so you never hesitate to seek help when your pet is unwell.
Sometimes medication is needed to help your pet recover, for example antibiotics for infections or painkillers after surgery. Operations can range from simple procedures to advanced ones, such as removing a tumour in a cat or fracture operation on a dog. Treatments like these can cost hundreds to thousands of euros. Vet insurance helps make these costs more manageable, so you can focus entirely on your pet’s wellbeing.

Preventive care is an important part of your pet’s health. Regular vaccinations for cats or vaccinations for rabbits protect against serious diseases, while worming courses and other preventive treatments help to prevent parasites. Although this care is essential, the costs are not always covered as standard by the basic policy. Many insurers do, however, offer supplementary packages that also reimburse preventive care. This helps you keep your pet healthy without extra financial strain.
When an animal is ill, diagnostic tests are often needed to reach an accurate diagnosis. These can range from blood tests for cats to advanced imaging such as X-rays, ultrasound scans or MRI scans. These examinations are essential in order to start the right treatment, but they can be expensive. Insurance can reimburse these costs in part or in full, so you never have to compromise on the quality of care.
