Here at Animal Friends, we don’t offer multi-pet discounts, because we don’t need to.
We do everything we can to make sure you get the best price for your pet, no matter how big or small your animal family. We do this because we believe everyone has the right to access affordable policies to make sure their pet is protected in their times of need.

Pet insurance premiums increase as your pet gets older. We use a number of things to work out your price each year. These include the age of the pet, where you live and the cost of vet fees. Excesses apply to all our policies and a co-payment is currently payable on claims if you renew your policy after your cat turns 10 years old.
