Hi there, We've had our rabbits for around a year. I made the decision to not get insurance as previous pets have needed little more than their annual check-ups. However, we've had so many trips to the vet this year that I think I probably should have done.
Partly what has stopped me is the fear that I'd get insurance but they wouldn't pay out for some reason. I've heard a few horror stories where insurers won't pay out for example for repeated bouts of GI stasis because it's seen as a pre-existing condition. Is this true? Are there companies who do?
One of the buns is over 5 years old and when I did look into insurance, it was refused based on the age. Are there insurers who will take on older buns?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated. Both buns had had several trips to the vet this year (I just made another post about that) and so I'm wondering whether with their medical history they'd have any hope of getting insured at all!
Thanks for reading.
