Fast and Efficient

5
We took out insurance with Petplan when we got our 2 kittens a year and a half ago. Unfortunately we had to use our insurance after just a few months as one of the kittens was sick. We just filled in the form, took it to the vet to fill in the rest and sent it to Petplan. We had been compensated within a couple of weeks and the whole process was hassle free. The monthly cost is affordable and definitely worth it. We will continue to use Petplan for all our pets and future pets! Reviewed on: 28th August 2019

Addie's clinginess!

5
Addie is rather clingy, but seems to be settled when we, my wife and I have to leave him in the house alone. He does not display problems such as damaging furniture etc. However when we return home even after a very short time or returning from brief work in the garden , the welcome we get is completely over the top. He "gently" takes hold of my fingers and pulls me into the house and this goes on for a while until he seemingly realises we are here to stay. It is very touching but a little bit sad. We cannot let him off the lead in the garden as he immediately digs the place up---he is a terrier of the West Highland variety. I suspect that this over the top welcome we get is maybe a symptom of separation anxiety? When away which is rare as we are both of retired age, he is probably on our minds and maybe we suffer from separation anxiety? Duncan Watson Reviewed on: 28th August 2019

Price increases
