Amethyst said:I'm not sure about the cheapest but you'd need to go for one that pays every year rather than per condition - if your rabbit develops an ongoing condition like diabetes or something then with companies that insure per condition the money will soon run out. If it "resets" per year then the money won't run out.
I used to have insurance with PetPlan but I stopped it because the excess is £60, and even when I claimed they didn't refund me everything (they said recovery food wasn't covered - she NEEDED it!! :roll. Plus it doesn't cover dental work, doesn't cover vaccinations or neutering, and doesn't cover any conditions resulting from not vaccinating or neutering them e.g. Myxi or uterine cancer. I found it much better to just set up a savings account and Direct Debit £50 per month into it!

IsabelM said:Incidently mine is about £77 per rabbit per year. You can pay £8.50 a month for 10months.
IsabelM said:I searched for ages and could only find pet plan.
I wasn't going to insure them becasue of the excess but was just going to use a savings account. After about 6 months of having them I've only got about £10 in there...I'm rubbish at saving! So after my friend recently had a £400 bill I decided to just bloomin do it. I do hate insurance but in my case I think its the best option.

Why is it more for rabbits than cats???
I must admit I didn't realise so much wasn't covered by them...this is why I hate insurance!

So, how about you get the £8.50 per rabbit per month Direct Debited to a savings account? You'll have saved up a pot of money in no time. You could put a bit more in too if you can afford it. If it's Direct Debit, you won't even think about it leaving your account - I'm an appalling saver as well and if I didn't DD things I'd never save up anything! :lol:

IsabelM said:Tried that. the trouble is I can access my acount on line so when I'm a bit low I do a bit of shuffling round (naughty bunny mummy). But they talk to me and tell me "Isabel your hair really needs cutting, why not use some of tha lovely money you've saved for us". It's their fault I tell you!
