Pet Insurance

So when I got my cat about 6 weeks ago she had a sneeze that lasted a few days as she is a rescue cat.

I got insurance on the 1st of May and put down no existing medical history.

My cats been taken to the vets today with breathing problems and the vet thinks the insurance company might get out of paying by claiming it was an existing issue.

My insurance company have said it will all depend what the Vet puts in the medical notes.

Has anyone had anything like this happen?

I've been told the vet bill will be £200 + with more to come depending on what they find and treatment etc

    Did you go to the vet with the sneezing then? Otherwise how would they know?

    When I got her she was due to have her first vaccination but the vet thought it best, to wait a few weeks before doing this as didn't want to risk making the sneeze worse.
