Hi guys, have you guys have any experience with pawp Pawp Clinic: Get $3,000 In An Emergency & Talk To A Vet 24/7

It is not a pet insurance but rather emergency fund to help with pet bills. I'm not eligible for pet insurance since my kitty is already diagnosed with pre existing condition.

It only covers LIFE THREATENING EMERGENCIES.

Read their FAQs.

My kitty had hairball obstruction in which it was removed with endoscopy last week. My kitty was admitted again today for second hairball obstruction!!! I don't know what to do. Dr discovered IBD upon first endoscopy biopsy. Her GI motility is not functioning due to IBD. My vet bills are in 5 figures. I don't know what to do!!!

I also read it and it seems there is a lot of wiggle room in how this could be interpreted on their part. You have to call first and provide a video; if you do not follow that procedure but contact your vet first, you are not covered. They have to determine that it is an emergency and not something that could have been or be handled by a vet under normal circumstances.

It appears to have to be life threatening immediate care that is covered. Even critical care is not covered if the pet could be seen within 24 hours by a regular vet. To me this means pet hit by car, massive seizures, poisonings, serious wounds, etc.

Thank you, I decided not to go forward with pawp. It seems like this might be a scam.
