You may not have known that you can get rabbit insurance in the UK. Rabbits are the third most popular pet in this country and only cats and dogs are a more popular pet.
There are many different breeds of rabbit from small dwarf varieties to large breeds that can be bigger than a cat. Like cats and dogs, rabbits can be house trained and people do keep them indoors. They are an affectionate animal and will follow you around the house.
Like many other types of insurance that you can get, UK rabbit insurance varies in the type of cover that is available. Policies start from about five pounds for a basic policy but will increase depending on the level of pet insurance cover that you require.
It is best to insure your rabbit from when you first get it, the older your pet is the more expensive it will be to get insurance. This is the same with any pet and indeed humans, the older we get the more likely we are to become ill and therefore the more likely a policy is going to be claimed against.
If you want to get your rabbit insurance policy costs down then you could opt to accept higher excess. With a higher excess you will get cheaper premiums but you will have to pay a higher percentage of any veterinary treatments that need to be done.
