Osgodby cats rescue centre wins Petplan prize draw

13th June 2011 Print

The Lincolnshire Trust for Cats, in Osgodby, has won a valuable £500 donation from the UK’s favourite pet insurance provider, Petplan.

Originally founded in 1999, the Lincolnshire Trust for Cats offers rescue facilities for cats in the area. Cats rehomed from the Lincolnshire Trust for Cats are automatically covered by Petplan for medical costs pertaining to injury in the first four weeks when the cat has been seen by a vet. The free introductory policy also includes a 14 day deferment for illness.

Petplan works with more re-homing charities than any other insurer to help fund the care of thousands of homeless cats and dogs. The company offers a cover note for four weeks free insurance to every owner adopting pets through the shelters it supports and also provides a free insurance voucher to visitors and supporters of the charities. Each month a prize draw is held from all the vouchers and cover notes issued and one charity benefits from the prize fund.

Alison Andrew, Marketing Manager for Petplan says, “We understand what a difficult time it can be re-homing an animal and are glad to offer this extra peace of mind during the first few weeks of a pet’s life in a new environment. Having your pet insured is an important part of taking care of its future health and it also helps you to plan any unforeseen veterinary costs.”

Petplan is committed to aiding the valuable work that re-homing shelters do. Charities such as Battersea, Cats Protection, Blue Cross and Dogs Trust are just a few of those that have benefited.
