Should you buy pet insurance?

Quote:

few years ago, pet insurance would have ranked right up there with life insurance for children and dread-disease coverage on my list of policies you don't need.
Now I'm not so sure.
I still believe most people are better off forgoing pet insurance and instead putting the money they would have spent on premiums into a savings account. Pet coverage can cost $2,000 to $6,000 over the life of an average pet, and the chances are slim you'll ever need to shell out that much for treatment.
But if you're the type of person who would do anything to save your pet, including spend thousands of dollars on medical care, pet insurance might be a preferable alternative to going into debt.
