Sorry it this has been asked before, but can anyone recommend a good place to insure snakes with? I just want to have all that sort of thing in place before I get my new arrival.

Also anyone living in Hampshire have you ever used Strathmore Vets in Andover? They are meant to be the best one near me in Alton and I just wanted to know if anyone had any opinions or could recomend a different one.

Thanks in advance

I think Pet plan do an insurance scheme for exotics, but I think it's expensive.

Just had a look on Pet plan. It would cost just short of £100.

Still seems to be about £85, but I guess over 12 mths that isnt too bad!! My cats would get jealous as they arent insured either, I'm a terrible mother but they get lots of love if that counts

i do believe its exotic direct tht are twinned with petplan as found them when i went looking, plus rang petplan themselves.. could say its their sister site.

Yeah I know pets can end up costing loads, which is why I do need to do it!! Well like I say when my solicitor pays up and I'm rich , I can insure all 3 of my little girls then none of them can feel left out!!!

as a Level 2 PetPlan Insurance Adviser: yes PetPlan do exotics insurance but they're not puching it at the moment, and yes they do go through Exotic Direct
