Common Questions

Can I insure an older bird?

Most plans have an age limit for new enrollment (often 20-25 years for parrots). However, once enrolled, coverage is lifetime. It is critical to insure them while they are young.

Does it cover plucking?

If the feather plucking is determined to be from a medical cause (like skin infection or zinc toxicity), yes. Behavioral plucking coverage varies by plan, but higher-tier wellness plans often include behavioral consults.

Are "Wellness Plans" different?

Yes. Medical insurance covers accidents/illnesses. Wellness plans are add-ons that reimburse you for routine exams, beak trims, and bloodwork.
