How does pet insurance work?

I checked into pet insurance a decade ago simply because I was
curious.
Our local rugby team used to have a signboard over their ground
saying their sponsor was a pet insurance firm. That told me all
I needed to know about how much profit they were making.
The most expensive thing we've had with our cats was surgery for
Courtney's broken hip - probably about the same as what Tweed's
incurred, and we're much less well off. Marion sometimes called
her "Holiday" after that because it meant no holiday that year.
Using a credit card and an overdraft instead of pet insurance
must have worked out a lot cheaper, though we never calculated
the exact figures.
I may be gullible, but I bought into pet insurance when I adopted
Pit2nya. I recall that it was one of the conditions that the Rescue
Group set forward. It helped once with dental work. I had to pay
up front and send the forms in.
If she ever got diabetes or something else that was serious it would
pay for the years I have 'donated' payments, rather than a great deal
at one time.
