PET INSURANCE
Outdoor cats can have a higher potential for illness or injury. If your cat is often out exploring, and only comes home for meals, he may be exposed to fleas or ticks, could get into scrapes fights other animals, or could be otherwise injured. An outdoor cat has a different set of risks of illness or injury than an indoor cat, but there are still many reasons you may want to consider cat insurance for your indoor cat.
Indoor cats may be as prone to health issues as outdoor cats, but in varying degrees and from different ailments.
Cats are smaller than dogs but that doesn’t mean the cost of their healthcare is less expensive. Depending on what your indoor cat is suffering from, and whether it’s going to be an ongoing health issue, the costs can escalate quickly.
