An insurance offer that's best for you and your circumstances
Pet insurance for cats is designed to cover the cost of vet’s bills for unexpected accidents or illnesses up to a set amount depending on the policy and level of cover you choose. Without cat insurance you’d have to cover the entire cost of these bills yourself, which can get very expensive – and no one ever wants to have to make the choice between cost and caring for your beloved pet.
The only difference with cat insurance to dog insurance is that it doesn’t provide third party liability, as this is specifically for dogs. Otherwise our cat and dog insurance policies are the same.
What your cat is covered for will depend on the policy type you choose, from Lifetime, 12 Months, and Accident Only.
Our cat insurance provides all sorts of great benefits and features:
A lifetime pet insurance policy will help you pay the vet bills up to the cover limit of the policy you’ve chosen. Our cover offers five levels to choose from to cover vet bills up to £2,000, £4,000, £6,000, £8,000 or £10,000. Lifetime cover is subject to your policy remaining in force, premiums kept up to date and the insurer offering renewal. Limits may apply for specific conditions. Find out more about Lifetime pet insurance.
This provides up to 12 months’ cover for your cat for each new accident or illness, up to the limit the policy allows. Find out more about 12 Month pet insurance.

With pet insurance, as part of the cost, your premium will increase each year at renewal as your pet gets older. We’ll limit the amount it goes up by, but your renewal price will also be impacted by:
You can, of course, shop around at renewal. Just bear in mind that any existing conditions your pet’s developed, whether diagnosed or not, may not be covered elsewhere.
Pre-existing conditions are not covered. Like most policies from other providers, your Asda Pet Insurance policy will not cover any medical condition or symptoms that your pet had before the start date of your policy or any that occur during the first 14 days of your insurance cover.

Insurance costs for your cat or kitten will vary according to the specific policy you take out. Here at Asda Money, we offer a range of different cat and kitten insurance policies from Lifetime cover to 12 months cover and Accident Only cover, each one providing levels and cover for different budgets. It’s also important to keep in mind that the cost of your premiums will go up as your cat or kitten continues to get older. Other factors will also drive the price up such as making a claim, rising vet fees, changes in policy etc as mentioned above.
Our kitten insurance provides protection from as early as 8 weeks old, but does not start any earlier than that. Most insurers will offer the same level of cover with similar age requirements – very few, if any, will provide protection for your pets earlier than 8 weeks. Compare kitten insurance quotes to find the right policy for you and your furry friend.
Pet insurance for kittens usually starts at 8 weeks old.Most kittens will start their vaccination courase at this time. Vaccinations are not covered by insurance nor are any illnesses or issues that occur due to not having had a vaccine, so it’s a good idea to make sure you follow your vet’s advice and book them in for vaccinations when recommended.
