Pet insurance quote - is it about right?

Have been dithering about insuring my four buns for ages now and have just got off the phone to petplan for a quote.

They've quoted me - for the four buns - £31.31 with the first three months free and an excess of £45. Is this about right do you think?
 
Doesn't sound too bad for four buns to me. The most important thing is the level of cover you're getting - are you covered for life for ongoing conditions?
 
That sounds good to me - from them I got £9.67 a month with 1 month free. That's for the life cover - it's important yo get this. Definitely get the insurance I had a £220 vets bill on Friday so was extremely glad I had him covered and only had topay the £50 excess.
 
Yep, sounds about right. Remember a lot of the other "major" insurance companies only do cats and dogs.

we are with petplan for our 2
 
Yes it is life cover. I think I'll probably go for it. I just don't want to take the risk of anything happening to them and worrying about money on top of that. I would do anything and pay anything for my lot without question!

I have been putting £20 a month away but I'm thinking if one needs treatment, I don't think that'll cover much!

yeh, but if you put the ammount insurance will be i.e 30 something quid, plus the excess, you'd be better off doing that!

i have four buns and i put money aside for them bcus i found insuring four buns just isnt worth it, when you have to pay the excess bcus whatever it is, has 2 be more then the monthly feee plus excess before its worth anything

if thats making any sense at all!!!
