2. Protect

​MetLife Health Insurance​

Last year, when I went to the vet with Chiggy and he wasn’t eating, our vet sent us to the ER, and two weeks later, I had lost Chiggy and owed over $8,000. If I had not had pet insurance, I wouldn’t have been able to make the decisions I did, nor would I have been able to afford his care. My sister got pet insurance years and years ago, and it was critical for her as well. That’s why I ended up getting it too.

If you want pet insurance, you can get a quote from MetLife for free.

Pet insurance gives you peace of mind knowing you can be reimbursed for up to 90% of those unexpected costs. Whether it's an accident, an illness, surgery, or even diagnostic tests, companies like MetLife Pet Insurance offer customizable plans to fit your needs and budget.

​Kat Kave Extra Large Litter Box​

This is the Kat Kave litter box. It's huge 28.25"L x 18.75" W x 20"H. My mom bought it for Caymus and Murphy, but it didn't work with their high peeing - they peed right out the entry hole. So she gave it to my sister, and it's worked wonders for her kitties that squat and pee - helps to contain the litter in the box and gives them ample area to do their business.
Buy here on Amazon.

​Morgan – Floppycat of the Week​
