Press Release: Introducing ASPCA Pet Health Insurance
(NEW YORK, NY) October 3, 2006 -- The ASPCA® (The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals®) today announced a brand-new offering that will improve the quality of life for pets and pet parents throughout the United States, and that comes with the backing of the country’s oldest animal welfare organization: ASPCA Pet Health Insurance. While pet insurance has been growing in popularity in recent years, this is the first product of its kind to be developed for and branded by a national animal welfare organization.

“The ASPCA is committed to constantly trying to improve the quality of life for pets and pet parents,” said ASPCA President & CEO Ed Sayres. “Veterinary costs are an important part of animal care, and have been rising by approximately six percent annually. Too often, pet parents are faced with an impossible choice: the health, sometimes survival, of their pets or their financial wellbeing. No one should have to make such a decision. With the many plan options provided by ASPCA Pet Health Insurance, our hope is that pet parents will breathe easier, and pets will live longer, healthier lives.”

Wow! Thant's great news. I just checked out the site and the prices and plans look more reasonable than other sites I've researched. The ASPCA and pet insurance? Sounds like a no-brainer match to me. Glad you folks were able to make it happen. Witht the terrific work you do, I am sure that the money you collect will help animals in need.

I just signed up for insurance for both my cats. It seems to be a win-win situation - reasonable prices and a portion goes to the ASPCA. Thanks for getting this set up!
I have pet ins.but i want proof of
my pet ins. too show the vet how do i get this form.
This insurance offering is unfair in pricing to older animals who are in good health, but should have biannual exams, and wellness care. Only the basic safety and the sterling (most expensive at $67+/month) are available to 11 year old cats who have an excellent health history, but are simply boxed into an age group.
Open all categories since the age limit is 15 years. Base the premium or plan on physical exam, not the age of the animal.
