My cat just recovered from UTI with crystals presented in his body. It costed 3000 dollars with the emergency vet just for catheter, so I am thinking of insuring him. However, all the insurance that I saw online do not cover such a situation which worries me since there is no way that I can afford another episode without an insurance. I have the following two questions:
1. Is there any insurance that can cover such a situation?
2. My regular vet told me only the emergency vet can treat UTI, I called several vets near me, and they confirmed this. I find this very bizarre, and there is only one emergency vet in my area so I could not even shop around to compare the price. Any chance anyone in the Chicago have experienced similar issue?
3. If there isn't insurance that can help me, what are my options financially against possible future recurrence?
Thank you very much in advance!!
