"When our dachshund was a puppy he loved to shred soft toys, tennis balls and plastic pots. Unbeknownst to us he was swallowing little pieces of everything he was gnawing on and one evening started yelping in pain. We took him to the vet and an x-ray showed a likely bowel blockage and we were looking at possible surgery. We had Bow Wow accident cover so we knew we'd be covered for the majority of the operation. Fortunately, he threw up most of it and further tests showed the blockage was cleared. The cherry on top was getting a chunk of money back for the vet visit and tests. Not even a month later he swallowed some palm tree fruit which is toxic and it was straight back to the vet to get him to throw it up. So we really got our money's worth in his first few months of life! Both times claiming online was super easy and the money was paid into our account quickly. What's also great is you can choose your cover amount and we chose to be 60% covered so any significant costs will be more than halved, but we have a lower premium. "

Why don’t you pay for prescription pet food if the reason is to treat a medical issue, such as diarrhea?
Hi Emma,
Thanks for your question. Just to confirm though, you have contacted finder.com.au, a comparison and information service and not actually Bow Wow Meow Pet Insurance.
While we can confirm that the cost of regular, prescription or dietary pet food is excluded from cover under your Bow Wow Meow Pet Insurance policy, I’m afraid we won’t be able to answer why it has been excluded. It will be the insurance company who can definitely address your question. With this in mind, please get in touch with them directly and they should be able to provide you with your needed details.
Kind regards,
Liezl
I am booking my pets in for annual vaccination. What is the process to claim after bill is paid.
Does comprehensive cover, cover desexing costs? I am looking at getting my dog desexed.
Hi Kristy,
Thank you for your question.
You have contacted finder.com.au, a comparison and information service and not actually Bow Wow Meow Pet Insurance.
According to Bow Wow Meow Pet Insurance’s PDS, they do provide cover for desexing under comprehensive and major medical plan.
Cheers,

Hi Jen,

We have a young dog who is periodically lame. He has suffered no injuries that we are aware of. (We have had him since 3 months old).
The vet refers to this as an arthritic condition. We would like him x-rayed in view of finding his problems,but need to know that if a solution is possible, we can afford to pay for his treatment. Is this dog excluded from cover as we are already aware something is not right?
Hi Jan,
Thanks for your question. Do you already have cover or are you enquiring about getting cover for your dog with an existing condition? If you already have cover, it will depend on your policy and whether or not X-ray is included. However, if you do not have cover, this would be an existing condition and may exclude you dog from cover for injuries or illness resulting from this condition.
I hope this was helpful,
Richard
Will my puppy be covered if it’s he’s been vomiting n I take him to the doctors n they prescribed him some meds?
Hi Vodka,
Thanks for your question. If the condition is not excluded by the insurer you should be covered for both. According to the schedule of benefits you’re covered for up to 80% of Vet bill covered, and also medicines and drugs.
I hope this was helpful,
