Common Dog and Cat Illnesses and Accidents

Common Dog and Cat Illnesses and Accidents

There are hundreds of conditions that may affect your pet, so when we say the Healthy Paws plan insures accidents and illnesses, this covers quite a bit of ground; pet parents might not even know the full range and extent of incidents out there.

We reviewed all of our claims data and developed a report that not only details symptoms and discusses commonly recommended treatments for the most common conditions, but also gives you the straight talk on cost. Find it all in our Cost of Veterinary Care Report.

Here are the top ten accidents and illnesses for dogs and cats from the last year.
