The Good Shopping Guide

With the rising cost of vet care in the UK, many pet owners rely on pet insurance to help cover the potentially high cost of treatment if their pet is injured or falls ill.

However, whilst policy coverage and value for money are important factors to consider when choosing pet insurance, so should the insurance provider's ethics. Consider, for example, that some insurance providers may be indirectly involved with animal testing through the companies they invest in.

Today, The Good Shopping Guide launches a new Pet Insurance Ethical Ratings table, so you can compare the ethical records of 17 different providers: https://buff.ly/4dyFxM5
