Hawaii’s pets enjoy year-round sunshine, dog-friendly beaches, and a laid-back island lifestyle, often joining their families for adventures in paradise. However, the high cost of living, unique local risks, and unexpected health issues make pet insurance especially important for pet parents.
Beyond the usual accidents and illnesses, pets may face risks like: mosquito/tick-borne illnesses (like heartworm), encounters with stinging insects or the Bufo toad, leptospirosis from animal urine.
There are also environmental factors that can affect Hawaii pets: higher cost of veterinary care than the national average, flash floods, poisonous plants, dangerous wildlife.
