      Ellenco has provided trusted pet medical
      insurance for cats and dogs in New Zealand
      since 1990
        
      No matter how much we love our pets,
      they are still vulnerable to infectious
      diseases, getting into fights or being hit
      by a car...With pet insurance you can have the
      choice of drastically reducing your veterinary
      expenses.
    
      Good veterinary care is expensive costing
      hundreds to thousands of dollars. But with Ellenco Pet Insurance you have the
      reassurance of knowing that if your pet is injured or ill, he or she can get the
      treatment they need.

      Many of our clients did not expect their pets to have accidents or illness,
      but when the unforseen happened they were pleased to be reimbursed for
      the major portion of their veterinary expense. It is a sad, but very true fact,
      that every year two out of three pets will require treatment for
      accident or illness.

      Some examples of accident claims we refunded have included, a dog that
      badly cut itself after jumping through a window, paws cut walking on the
      beach and major surgeries required after foreign objects like a corn cob,
      stones and socks were swallowed.  Some examples of illnesses we have
      refunded include, arthritis, diabetes, heart conditions, epilepsy, cancer,
      skin and ear infections - conditions which can present in both cats and dogs. 

     A choice of six plans, starting from just $7.15 per month...
     Ellenco offers a broad range of plans. There are four comprehensive Medical AND
     Surgical plans.  Our Ultra and Premier plans assist with the costs of desexing
     your cat or dog (conditions apply). Our Jade plan provides for 100%* cover! (
     *with a $100 excess per unrelated illness or injury). If you don't need full insurance
     cover, have a look at our two Surgery only plans.
