What kind of fool pays as much for pet insurance as it costs for private medical for a person?

Over the life of a pet, in most cases it will be cheaper not to have insurance. Depends if you can afford the big bills when they come. Our previous moggies were never insured - we had a couple of very big bills - run over, dodgy eye (£1500!) and thyroid operation and ongoing medication. They lived 18 and 21 years - we were definitely better of picking up the bills than we would have been paying insurance. Having said that, I've insured our new kittens, but with cheapo policy (above) which will pick up the tab if there's anything super expensive.

I agree with this, especially when your animal gets older and your premiums go up.
