Pet Insurance in Wyoming
In the event of an accident or illness, pet insurance allows you to focus on what is important—caring for your sick or injured pet rather than having to deal with the financial burden that often comes with proper health care. Every area poses specific risks to pets and understanding these unique risks can help you determine which plan is best for you and your pet. Some area specific health risks in Wyoming, which can be covered with pet insurance, include:
◦ Diseases transmitted through close contact with livestock
◦ Due to the outdoor lifestyle of Wyoming and large amount of wildlife, animal bites and lacerations are more common in Wyoming than other states
◦ Parasites that transmit disease (like ticks and mosquitoes)
Pet insurance can help protect your dog or cat from accidents and illnesses like the conditions noted above and provide you with the peace of mind in knowing that you are prepared to provide them with the health care they need. Wyoming pet insurance plans are flexible, designed to meet you and your pet’s individual needs and will typically cover costs associated with accidents and illnesses.
In addition to accident and illness coverage, pet owners in Wyoming should consider a wellness plan. As mentioned above, the most common health conditions in Wyoming are caused by poor dental health and being overweight. It is very important to be diligent with your pet’s dental care and weight because these issues can lead to much more serious and expensive health conditions down the road like heart, kidney, and liver problems. Fortunately, dental disease and obesity are preventable with routine vet exams and dental cleanings. As mentioned earlier, animals in Wyoming are also exposed to many infectious parasites compared to pets living in other states. Mosquitos, ticks and fleas can transmitted harmful, infectious diseases. It is recommended that all pets be given monthly parasite control to prevent the exposure to these parasites. Preventative health care costs can start to add up, but a wellness insurance plan can cover these costs. Wellness plans (also known as routine care plans) will cover costs associated with most routine/preventative care, such as:
◦ Vaccinations
◦ Flea, tick and heartworm control
◦ Heartworm test
◦ Dental cleanings
◦ De-worming
◦ Routine bloodwork
◦ Routine urine and fecal tests
◦ Wellness exams and more
Wellness plans not only help you save money on routine care, it can also help you stay on top of your pets wellness care to prevent some serious health conditions down the road.
