Hi All,
I've had cats my entire life but never had pet insurance. I have two 10 month olds that I'm now considering getting insurance for...just in case. I'm getting much more nervous and risk averse in my old age.
One of my babies had an elevated ALP and SDMA as well as concentrated urine with some crystals. That was when she was about 5 months old.
During her spay last month (9 months old) they rechecked her blood (but not her ALP) and her SDMA is still high - 14 but her urine was clear. My vet isn't concerned....yet.
I've been trying not to think that she's going to have kidney disease down the line because I would be literally devastated but I guess that's beside the point.
I called up some pet insurance companies and they would consider Georgia's kidney levels a pre-existing condition and wouldn't cover anything related to it in the future.
Would you still get pet insurance?
