Is There A Far Better : Is There A Better Alternative To Pet InsuranceIf your home is like 72.9 million others in the U.S., it is home to at least one pet. According to the 2011-2012 APPA National Pet Owners Survey, 62 percent of households in the U.S. Have at least one pet. It's not hard to imagine why.
