Policy Types at Cove
Cove offers three cat insurance policies…

Accident Only
⭐ MOST AFFORDABLE
A budget-friendly pet insurance plan for those sudden unforeseen events. This plan covers your pet for accidental injury only.
Pick this product if your major concern is large unexpected accidents, and you’re happy to cover illness-related bills.

Major
⭐ MOST POPULAR
A budget-friendly cover that covers both accidents and illnesses, and is designed to be used only for those eye-watering large vet bills, and not the everyday expenses of caring for a pet.
Pick this product if you’re concerned about major accidents or illness for your pet but are happy with the everyday expenses.

Major + Minor
⭐ MOST COMPREHENSIVE
Our most comprehensive policy that covers both accidents and illnesses, and is designed to be used for a larger range of vet bills, from skin conditions to larger operations & treatments.
Pick this product if you’d like more certainty about what you’ll need to pay in a year for your pet’s health needs and protection from larger unexpected events.

Need help choosing cat insurance?
Which of these scenarios do you relate with most…

Accident Only
Mia treats her cat like a king, and knows it’s from a leading breeder with a history of breeding strong, healthy cats. For Mia, she decides to buy cover just for those nasty unforeseen events, such as her beloved cat being hit by a ute. With Cove’s Accident Only policy, Mia can lodge a claim to help with the consultations, X-Rays, and medications related to this event. However, since this is an extremely affordable policy, illnesses such as skin problems and cancer aren’t covered.
Major Stuff Cover
Nikau has recently adopted a cat, and can comfortably manage to pay for run-of-the-mill vet consultations and minor mishaps or health-related issues. However, what scares him is being faced with a $5,000 bill for major surgery or intensive treatment for an illness, so Nikau chooses Coves Major Stuff Cover. Because it is designed only to be used for those eye-watering large vet bills, the premium is much more affordable month to month.


Major + Minor Stuff Cover
Matilda has recently adopted a cat, and like Nikau, is worried about facing large vet bills for major surgery or intensive treatment for an illness.
However, Matilda also wants help in managing the occasions where her cat might need more minor treatment. The Major + Minor policy gives Matilda the peace of mind that her cat has a policy that can be called upon for a wider range of scenarios.
