White Water
New Kit
Two months ago I bought a new baby rabbit off of a friend who'd had a surprise litter. I haven't owned a rabbit in two years, but he is the sixth rabbit I've owned. I didn't waste time insuring him as the previous rabbit cost us well over £2000 in vet bills and I'm not keen on repeating that pattern. Julio is however the first rabbit I have ever insured (part of the reason to that as I'm now 18 and able to legally own him and pay for his bills myself) and I'm worried I've chosen the wrong insurer for him. This is because I've recently reviewed the documents as I'm getting ready to talk to the vet about vaccinating and neutering him (something else we've never done). I'm on a Life-long Petplan insurance scheme and I pay around £160 annually for him, which wouldn't be a problem if not for what the insurance actually offers (which is revealed in emailed documents some time after purchase). I've discovered Petplan won't cover vaccinations and neuturing (which I'm happy enough with because that's not what's really expensive in the grand scheme of vet bills) but they also won't cover burring or any other dental procedure. This is the real kicker here because it was our last rabbit's teeth (and the one before her) that cost us all that money. And quite frankly, I expect Julio to have some problems with his teeth and I'm not prepared to pay for his Petplan insurance if I have to pay for burring or other dental problems too.
So long story short, I'm wondering if anyone here is able to recommend a good insurance company (in the UK) that offers cover for dental problems so that I can renew his insurance with a different company.
