Just got my first pet - Teacup/Toy Yorkie! (Wife and I have been wanting a dog and quarantine seemed like the perfect time to get one)

Was looking for Pet Insurance for him. PwC offers a 10% discount through ASPCA. Was wondering what pet insurance everyone else has and if any company is preferred?

I’m thinking of a plan with a $250 deductible with 90% reimbursed with a 10k annual limit of total reimbursements. Thoughts/opinions on this?

I have 60 days to elect COBRA under employer A, which leaves me with 2 days where I wouldn’t have coverage (Jan30/31). What would you do in this situation? (Cont)
