No quibble help at a very difficult time

5
When my much loved elderly cat Sparky became unwell with an eye condition, he had to have multiple tests and trips to specialist vets. Sparky was a very special cat as he saw me through the initial grieving period after the death of my little boy from cancer. During Sparky's illness, Animal Friends was there for me throughout, I never had to quibble about his vet bills or any of the claims I put in. Their staff were always really pleasant and empathetic on the phone, and this made a very difficult time much more manageable for me. Sparky has sadly passed away now. I miss him very much, but I knew that when my heart was ready for new furry friends, Animal Friends would be where I would come to insure them - and I did; my new kittens Magic and Moonlight are insured with them now. I didn't even bother to look elsewhere, as the service I had with Animal Friends was second to none. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2023

They don't rip me off

5
I've used animal friends for a few years and while I've not had to make a claim, unlike other insurance companies my renewal quotes are in line with quotes for new customers, and no dearer than other companies. It's nice to be able to renew without feeling ripped off, which is more than most other insurers. Reviewed on: 3rd August 2023
