In reply to TheDrunkenBakers:
When I had Ben, he was insured with Sainsbury's Pet Insurance.
Sainsbury's never once questioned a vet bill for normal ailments that a collie picks up through their active life.
And when Ben was diagnosed with aggressive Leukaemia resulting in a trip to Liverpool once or twice a month for the last six months of his life, Sainsbury's Pet Insurance never once quibbled over the vet bills that were in excess of £6,000.
Not too sure if we did the right think keeping Ben alive for so long but that's a different discussion.
As for Bailey, he's not insured, just yet. We're still smarting over the idea of insurance and what we would do if he got such a nasty illness. But if we did choose another insurance company, then it would most probably be with Sainsbury's again.
