Ok... I KNOW I have seen threads about pet insurance here, but I'm not getting any results using the search box.

My employer recently added pet insurance to our list of benefits. The insurance would be offered through VPI. The quote I got was for about $40/month. Does that sound about right? It's for their Major Medical Plan w/ a $14,000 maximun annual benefit and a Routine Care package with a $250 maximun annual benefit.

We have been lucky with Havoc so far, but even the little trivial things that have added up. His ear infection a few months ago ended up costing about $200, and his recent eye issue (the equivalent of puppy pink eye) was another $150. Plus shots and routine visits- I think in 10 months I've spent close to a $800 already. We've got some big plans for the summer and thought that pet insurance might be worth it, but I'm having a hard time understanding what it will and won't pay for (I'll probably call them later) and also want to see if people have used VPI and what their experiences have been.

Here you go Kerry: http://canada.gopetplan.com/ However, apparently, they aren't available in Ontario yet.
