Does Your Pet Need Life Insurance?
I spoke with a client recently regarding estate planning for her pets and she asked about life insurance for her cats.
We have found that some companies will provide life insurance coverage for your pet, including VPI Pet Insurance, PetPlan Pet Insurance, PetCare Insurance, National Insurance Company and the Oriental Insurance Company Limited.
Benefits can range from $200 to $750 for non-show pets, while higher limits of $1,000 to $10,000 are available.
I am not sure if the plans are a good value, but the insurance may be worthwhile to some pet owners.
If you have any interest in these policies for your pets, be smart, shop around, compare policies and companies, and then decide if it is right for you.
