If you are currently considering a move to Gibraltar or have already relocated to this fabulous part of the world, we can well understand why. This British Overseas Territory, located at the southern tip of the Iberian Peninsula, has much to recommend it as a place to set up home.

Gibraltar gets about 300 days’ sunshine a year, and is home to various industries. For many expatriates, then, the territory provides just the right balance between career opportunity and a laidback lifestyle. 

Furthermore, Gibraltar’s relatively small size means that if you have an outdoor cat, they will likely often be able to find their way back to your residence in the territory without too much trouble. 

However, as you can never quite rule out potential health issues in your cat, you should remember to insure them. That’s very much our specialty here at Ibex Insurance Services – and here are some of the great reasons to request a pet insurance quote from us.  

You could help yourself more easily pay for veterinary care 

Cats are vulnerable to various health problems – such as arthritis, urinary conditions and itchy skin, with the last of those usually caused by fleas. When any dilemma like one of these does evidence itself, you might need to take your cat to the vet to get it the treatment it needs. 

While you can’t be certain when and whether your cat may be affected by a health problem that would require you to pay vets’ fees, you can at least be confident that, if you have taken out the appropriate cat insurance in Gibraltar, your furry friend will be able to receive veterinary care when they need it.   

Your cat can be covered for foreign travel 

Gibraltar is undoubtedly a small place; its total area spans only 2.6 square miles. For this reason, you may find yourself itching to spend time away from the territory occasionally. However, when you do so with your cat for company, you won’t want to temporarily void your pet insurance. 

Thankfully, by providing you with one of our Silver or Gold-level pet insurance policies, we can ensure that – as long as your cat also has a valid EU pet passport or PETS certificate issued before 1st October 2004 – your pet insurance policy stays valid while you travel with your cat.
