Step 1: Fill in some information about your cat

The first step is to fill in some details about your cat, such as its breed or crossbreed, its weight and its age. These factors also influence the amount of the premium. For example, the risk of health problems is higher if your cat is on the heavy side. The age of your cat also plays an important role. The older an animal gets, the higher the risk of disorders. Many insurers therefore recalculate the premium every year, this is also called an aging surcharge. This means that the premium will increase every year.

Step 2: Choose the desired coverage

A cat insurance consists of a basic coverage and possibly additional coverage. What is covered with the basic coverage differs per insurer. You then choose which additional covers you want. For example, you can insure physiotherapy, behavioural therapy, radiotherapy and dental costs. With some insurers you can also insure the sterilisation or castration of your animal and sometimes even the necessary vaccinations. Travel cover or cremation cover is also an option. You can choose the best insurance for your cat yourself.

Step 3: Compare providers

There are several providers of cat insurance on the market. However, the premiums and conditions can vary greatly. The best cat insurance can therefore be found by comparing providers. By comparing, you will always choose the cat insurance that suits you and your cat best. Do not only look at the amount of the premium, but also at the coverage and conditions of the insurance. This way you can be sure that your cat is well insured in case of illness or an accident and you will not be surprised by high medical costs.

Step 4: Take out your cat insurance!

Have you found the best cat insurance? Then you can easily take out the insurance online. Please take into account that most insurance companies apply a waiting period of 30 days. This means that the insurance only takes effect 30 days after conclusion. During the waiting period the insurer will not reimburse any medical expenses incurred before or during the waiting period.
