Hello everyone,
I am a student at the University of Pennsylvania working on a survey of
US pet owners. The aim of this survey is to research the relationship
between pet owners and their pets and in particular their attitudes
towards their pet's health. Three years ago a similar survey was
conducted and administered by posting the link on pet friendly groups
such as this. That survey ultimately resulted in over 3,000 responses
and motivated the students who created it to develop a new pet health
insurance venture that has partnered with Petplan, which is the
world's oldest and largest pet health insurance provider. I am now an
intern working with Petplan this summer to administer this year's
survey which aims to identify and track changes in pet owners'
attitudes over the past three years.
I am writing to request your participation in this survey. If you have
any questions please do not hesitate to contact me at
sarah.friedman@petplan-usa.com .
Finally should you require verification of my position as a summer
associate at Petplan please e-mail hr@petplan-usa.com or call
1-866-GOPETPLAN.
To take the survey please just click on the following link:

Kind regards,

I don't do insurance for my cats. My attitude is insurance
comapanies don't make money paying claims, they make mony
NOT paying claims.
After many years of dealings with BCBS, auto insurance,
etc. I'm of the opinion i'll put the amount of money I would
spend on pet insurance into a mutual fund and self insure
myself.
I don't want to have to deal with a moron at the insurance
company who decides that operation is not necessary,
that my cat should be put to sleep.
