Petplan created a really interesting video infographic about pets they insure; from dogs, cats, horses to rabbits or even tortoises.
I like numbers and statistics so this infographic is really up my alley.
It is interesting to know that despite the UK being a nation of cat owners (apparently) Petplan has much more dogs than cats on their books (only 37% of cats to a staggering 56% of dogs).
I wonder why… maybe this has something to do with the size and vet bills… unsure… but I would assume it is the reason why so many cat owners have decided not to insure their cats, which is really silly as vet bills can easily reach in to the £1000s when something goes wrong (we know the pain we missed a hot spot on our Bunk once and thus got hit with well over £500 of vet bills for cleaning it up).
The most interesting part of the infographic for me is the ages of the Petplan elders “customers”. The oldest rabbit is 13 years old, oldest dog is 21 (wow!), elders cat….
… watch the infographic to find out…
It is very enjoyable, I promise.

Bark Time = everything and nothing 
omg the springer spaniel!!!! and the tortoiseshell! that’s made so clever, I love it!!! yay for sarah… or david :o) thanks for sharing!
It is funny… I do not know even one Sarah who would have a cat 😦
I do not even now any Sarah :o) but it was interesting and that’s the way, I think that people learn things with a laughter :o)
we have a petplan for our full breed german sheperds, its definately worth it, my husband would be lost wqithout his babies x
I’m a dog woman, don’t like cats at all. I’m shocked that we are a cat nation. I love facts and figures. I didn’t know there was 302 different breeds of dog though, that honestly amazed me.
I really enjoyed the video. I need to register my new bunny rabbit with Petplan xx

I’m not a pet person at all and didn’t even realise you could get insurance for them which is a bit dim of me I suppose but I just never really thought about it… I’m just pleased I don’t have to insure my kids (Currently)
I’m insured by petplan and great to hear they look after so many furbuddies:-)
It’s amazing just how many cats and dogs there are, surprising we’re not knee deep in them!!
Love the Ragamuffin cat 🙂 we have a Charlie cat!
This is a cute video! When I was younger I had a cat live to be 18. He even was an outdoor cat.
Very interesting! I don’t have any pets, but it was a fun read anyway
We have no pets, but these are interesting facts and figures.
I have five dogs. I need insurance! Checking into it. Thanks.
We only have chickens and fish – neither of which are really worth insuring (tbh not sure I would insure a rabbit if I had one) but I was surprised how few horses they had – would have thought more of them would be insured!
We had insurance when our dog was alive, very handy
Very clever video! I have to admit to not being an animal person. My 2 human ‘animals’ are enough for me!
Ha that was actually rather enjoyable! I love fun facts. Can’t believe how old the cat is!
I’ve always wondered why people choose not to insure cats – they probably have more accidents/injuries than dogs! Great little video 🙂
Great video! I didn’t know you could insure rabbits.. I thought it was just cats and dogs!
