routine care plan (i.e. for vaccines & flea/tick meds). It is not liability insurance.

Pre-Existing Conditions Aren’t Covered

Pet insurance is for future health issues that occur after the policy takes effect. No pet insurance company covers pre-existing

conditions. But, if the pet has a pre-existing condition, there are thousands of other future health issues that pet insurance covers.
