Our quote was $114/year/bunny. You can pay $11.50 per month but paying annually is like a 21% discount. You can cancel and get a pro rata refund. There is a short period before coverage is effective and it does not cover pre-existing conditions (they don't want you to call in the middle of some illness to get coverage).Bunyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05936114586976793149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265676318213027088.post-60446919097581718312016-08-08T22:11:42.529-04:002016-08-08T22:11:42.529-04:00"You might want to consider health insurance ..."You might want to consider health insurance for your bunnies; we enrolled Bunya and Ethel a short while ago"<br /><br />Whoa, whoa, whoa -- where'd you find bunsurance??

When you mentioned it and didn't talk about her again, I was afraid that it was so serious that you couldn't bring yourself to talk about it. Give both bunnies nose rubs and hope they get well quick.<br />almtsbbhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05246936111000923857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265676318213027088.post-1829753565639699482016-08-06T20:06:55.392-04:002016-08-06T20:06:55.392-04:00I'm sure Nutmeg appreciates the loving care.

I didn't get to check my email, yesterday, so when I opened this one, only to find a sweet Ethel unwell, Lola's bunny-daddy saw immediately that something was wrong. I simply said, "Ethel's sick." His face fell, too. You and your bunny family have become very dear our family, even though we've never met. It was so good to read on, and see that both buns are on their way to wellness again, and with 'simple' fixes. <br />Lola is at least 5yrs old, now (we rescued her in 2011, and she was already grown) and we are learning much from your blog. Thank you so much for keeping it so real - fun, and not so fun, alike.Sasssshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11638330917934170926noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265676318213027088.post-74253138478843191012016-08-06T10:40:27.072-04:002016-08-06T10:40:27.072-04:00My Nutmeg is almost 9 and several years ago develo...My Nutmeg is almost 9 and several years ago developed an ulcer on her cornea. She is most likely blind in that eye, as it did heal itself- but she does have problems with her nasolacrimal duct and can't reabsorb her tears. So she has a squinty, weepy eye that I check on daily. No treatment is available for the issue, but I do keep a close watch.TheShazzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16658096032620299215noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4265676318213027088.post-26880131119114913872016-08-05T02:11:31.432-04:002016-08-05T02:11:31.432-04:00Life is never dull with bunnies in your life,hope ...Life is never dull with bunnies in your life,hope the are feeling better now,xx Rachel and SpeedyLittle Miss Titchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08456038281813066947noreply@blogger.com
