Things You Need
To Know
Finding the most suitable pet insurance for kittens can be confusing – we get it. Read these explanations to understand exactly what you get from your PD pet insurance policy.
This refers to the total amount we’ll pay in a year towards your pet’s claimable expenses. For example, if you take out our Deluxe Plan the maximum amount in any one year you can claim is $20,000. Across our plans we have a per claim limit, which is subject to 80% reimbursement and is the most we’ll pay per claim. Each new event, condition, illness or accidental injury is considered a new “Claim” or “Event”. You’ll find your defined benefit limit and your claim limits outlined in your Certificate of Insurance.
An insurance cover limit is the maximum we’ll pay toward a covered claim. Generally speaking, the higher your cover limit, the higher your premium. We offer three kitten insurance plans and each plan offers different cover limits. You’ll find your policy’s cover limits outlined in your Certificate of Insurance.
Excess refers to the amount of money you need to pay when making a claim with your pet insurance. With PD Insurance, you have the option to choose your excess value, which can be set at $100, $200, or $300.
For instance, if you have selected a $100 excess and you receive a $1,000 vet bill, your claim will amount to $800. In this scenario, your excess will be $100, and we will cover the remaining $700 of the bill.
These can vary widely between kitten insurance providers. A waiting period is the amount of time that must pass before your cover for a certain benefit will begin, starting from the policy start date. Depending on which of our kitten insurance plans you choose, some benefits may have a waiting period.
This refers to the amount we pay towards your kitten insurance claim. Know that with our pet insurance for kittens, we’re committed to reimbursing as soon as possible.
Like other kitten insurance companies, we exclude pre-existing conditions. This refers to conditions that occurred before you started your policy with us (or during the waiting periods).

Read more about our coverage in the PD Insurance product disclosure statement here.
PD Insurance covers hereditary conditions under our Classic and Deluxe pet insurance plans, as long as the condition was not present prior to commencing your cover or during any applicable waiting period(s).
