You're used to buying insurance for your car or your health, but now a trend that's picking up steam... buying insurance for your pets! And why wouldn't you? They’re already part of the family. The List’s Jimmy Rhoades  looks at the three most popular pet insurance plans to get you the best deal.

 

1.  Healthy Paws

They pay up to 90% of your pet's vet bill and you can use any licensed veterinarian you want. But there is a catch. In order to provide affordable accident and illness coverage, they don’t cover office visits..

 

2.  Petplan

With three levels of coverage, you can pick a plan that works for you. The gold plan covers vacation cancellation in case your pet gets sick. If you don't need all that, save money with their bronze plan. On average, plans cost about a dollar a day.
