The price of pet insurance plans can vary significantly, depending on a bunch of different factors, so we decided to check out some rates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, we got a pet insurance quote for a 2-year-old, short-haired cat in Brooklyn, New York. We picked the base policy offered by six different pet insurance companies, and adjusted the coverages as much as we could to include a $250 deductible, 80%&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.lemonade.com\/insuropedia\/dictionary\/co-insurance\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">co-insurance<\/a>, and the maximum annual limit available, with no add-ons or discounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We built these quotes to be as identical as possible, but there are a few coverage differences to note. For example, Healthy Paws only offered 80% co-insurance without an annual limit, and Trupanion only offered a 90% co-insurance option. We standardized the offerings as much as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The average cost of cat insurance turned out to be about $25\/month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"690\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lemonade.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2-1-1024x690.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-15384\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lemonade.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2-1-1024x690.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.lemonade.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2-1-300x202.png 300w, https:\/\/www.lemonade.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2-1-768x518.png 768w, https:\/\/www.lemonade.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/2-1.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, we pulled quotes for a 2-year-old Labrador, also from Brooklyn, New York.
