Ask the expert: Our cat heart murmur, a pre-existing condition on our policy?
Earlier this month I received an email from Melissa, concerned that her cat’s heart murmur might be considered as a pre-existing condition by her insurer. Is it or is it not? Let’s find out…
Hi
We have pet insurance and rescued 2 x 3 year old moggies from a rescue centre at the end of November, when the policy was taken out.
We took them to our local vets on Saturday 9th of January to have their jabs and basic health checks.
We were told that one has a heart murmur. We had no idea anything was wrong and are now worried that our insurance company will treat this as a pre-existing condition if we claim?
Thanks
Melissa
Hi Melissa and thanks for contacting me via pet-insurance-discount.co.uk.
I think it should be covered by your pet insurance company. You to
