IT’S ALL ABOUT THE JOY OUR PETS BRING
“Our pets lift our spirits, and that’s why we help our customers to cover the cost of their pets’ healthcare so they can live their best pet lives and continue to give us so much joy,” says Anthony McPhail, CEO of Southern Cross Pet Insurance (SCPI).
SCPI offers a variety of plans to meet pets’ and owners’ needs – and with more than 65,000 cats and dogs covered, SCPI certainly knows what can go wrong, and right. “Dogs are notorious for eating things they shouldn’t, and cats often want to see what’s on the other side of the road. While insurance is vital to help cover the cost of illness or injury, we also invest in educating pet owners about how they can give their pets the best possible pet life,” he says.
“We have introduced successful initiatives like Hi Vis; calling attention to pet road safety, and Paws Off which helps owners understand what NOT to give their pets to eat. We also work closely with world-renowned animal behaviourist, Mark Vette, sharing proven hints and tips to dog and cat owners of Aotearoa.”
SCPI’s long standing partnerships with amazing organisations like Pet Refuge and the NZ Veterinary Association have recently been expanded to include Blind Low Vision New Zealand and its Guide Dog puppy programme. “We’re excited and privileged to support organisations which make a real difference in our pets’ lives,” adds Mr McPhail.
