Howard
Sarah Pelland, Winnipeg, MB
I came home from work one day to see my cat Howard, very sick and barley able to walk up the stairs. I looked around and noticed half of our peace lily plant was devoured. I called our veterinary practice who told me that peace lilies are toxic and advised me to take him to the emergency clinic right away.
We brought Howard in and they quickly admitted him. I knew plant toxicities could be fatal and I was devastated at the thought of losing our feline friend. I told the vet right away, "Do whatever you need to help Howard. I have pet insurance so I'm not concerned about the cost."
The next day the emergency vet called and Howard had gotten worse. His kidney levels were on the rise, so they increased the fluid therapy and continued his IV. All we could do was cross our fingers and wait.
2½ days later (which felt like a lifetime) our wish was granted! Howard's levels had stabilized and he was back to normal. I was able to pick him up and bring him home that afternoon.
The total bill was $770. I would have paid that amount for Howard, but because of his pet insurance the actual cost I had to pay was a lot less! It was fantastic to know that I could truly afford Howard's treatment (and not rack up the bill on my credit card). Pet insurance provided me the comfort and peace of mind knowing I didn't have to worry about the cost of what needed to be done. I was able to solely focus on Howard getting better and back to his affectionate, adventurous self!

Tracers's True Tail -
a pet insurance testimonial
"Reimbursement was quick and Petsecure's team was there to help me through my grieving process"
Read Tracers's Story
Tracer
Tracer's Mom, Camrose, AB
My eight-year-old Weimaraner Tracer, started to show signs of an illness. It started with an ear infection, to severe lameness in one rear leg, then to eye problems (eventually in both eyes), and gradually moved to lameness in three of her legs.
Throughout the treatment of what was eventually diagnosed at Myasthenia Gravis, I never had to worry about what to do next or if I could continue to afford treatment. Unfortunately, due to complications, I had to euthanize Tracer last spring. It became an issue of quality of life and ability to care for him.
Petsecure assisted me through the grieving process with a very patient Customer Care Representative who took care of things in-between my crying moments. Their notes were sympathetic and to the point. I never had to stress about delayed payments or question what was owed. Reimbursement was quick and Petsecure took care of refunding the unused portion of my pet insurance payment without me even asking.
Today we have our new puppy Onyx as part of our family and he's also insured through Petsecure. There was no question in my mind on that decision. There is definitely peace in my mind knowing I can provide the care my pet may need without adding to the stress of balancing the ability to pay for the treatment versus getting our dog back to his usual self.
Thanks Petsecure!
