Well it had to come to South Africa, didn’t it? I mean, it makes sense – cheap pet health insurance for your dog or cat! In South Africa. Why didn’t YOU think of that?

How about a warm round of applause for South Africa’s premier veterinary pet health insurance company – Medipet.

See what they did there with that paw and the ‘i’..
..nice.

Ever since these guys have hit the scene, I’ve found myself in some high level talks with some very low level people, about the validity of pet health insurance in South Africa. This stuff is MASSIVE in the UK and I am intrigued as to why the idea might sound crazy to some people. But then I find out that it is mostly people who have never had a pet. And I’ve had pets, people. I’ve had many pets.

Mostly my Mother’s pets.

Let me tell you something.. I’ve been talking about the dire need for pet health insurance ever since our (my Mother’s) SECOND Yorkshire Terrier, Meggy, developed a rare skin disorder. It is only right that an only child surrounded by 1,000 antique porcelain dolls and dolls-houses, should be subject to the development of a rare Yorkshire Terrier skin disorder. A skin disorder that reached such staggering proportions, that my mother was, at one stage, seen signing cheques in the tens of thousands of Rands – as samples of Meggy’s fucking skin and DNA (ARE YOU LISTENING TO THIS!!!?) were medically couriered (REFRIDGERATED) to the United States of America for ANALYSES by some of the world’s top animal skin scientists!

I swear to God.

A Yorkshire Terrier – similar to Meggy.
And what a beautiful coat.

Naturally, this was all QUITE a surprise for all of us, knowing that Meggy was sired by Duke Remington – a famous “Yorkie”, bred by one of South Africa’s most well-known breeders. I mean, Meggy’s mother was none other than “Dynamite!” – a FAMOUS local Yorkshire Terrier who used to bounce on her hind legs when her master cried the words, “DANCE, DINAH, DANCE!”

Dynamite obviously belonged to my grandmother…

I got carried away a little there, but at least now I’ve written it down – because I’m tired of telling people how expensive animals can get. But you love them so much you don’t even realise that R20,000 has gone and you’ve got nothing to show for it but another vet bill. Animals are expensive things my friends – and if I had a pet right now, I would have pet insurance. And if you have a pet any bigger than a canary, you’d be a fool not to have any pet insurance. It’s not a lot of money..

Check these guys out. I’m really impressed.
