Trupanion kitten insurance

What is kitten insurance?

With all of the responsibilities that come with bringing a kitten into your family, the last thing you should have to worry about is unexpected veterinary costs. You can’t predict when your kitten will experience a surprise illness or injury, but what you can do is help protect both your pet and your budget with cat insurance. And by enrolling your pet when they’re still a kitten, you can set both of you up for a lifetime of less worry.

With coverage from Trupanion, you get to enjoy unlimited payouts and never have to stress about us suddenly cutting off care or raising rates just because your cat develops a chronic condition or otherwise needs frequent care. We cover eligible costs for all new injuries and illnesses, including surgeries, hospital stays, emergency care, and other unexpected vet costs faced by pet parents every day.

And for when you need to ask questions, or navigate an emergency, we’re available 24/7, 365 days a year. After all, we all know that our pet can’t wait to get sick or hurt only during business hours.

When's the best time to get kitten insurance?

The best time to get insurance is while your cat is still a kitten. Signing up when they’re still young enables you to get the best value out of your cover:

• More conditions covered — The younger the cat, the less likely they are to have pre-existing conditions. This means your pet will have more conditions that can be covered throughout their lifetime.
• Lowest cost — With Trupanion, we base your monthly cost for life on your pet’s age when they enrolled. So, if you sign up when your pet is a kitten, they’ll be priced as a kitten throughout their nine lives.

TIP: No cat insurance provider covers pre-existing conditions. Insuring your cat when they’re young or when you first bring them home helps you get the most out of your cover because they’re less likely to develop pre-existing conditions.
