Preventive Essentials is what we call Pumpkin’s wellness package. It’s not insurance, but an optional benefit you can add to your insurance plan if you want refunds for routine care cats need to stay healthy!

Preventive Care: Stuff To Know

Pumpkin worked with vets to create a Preventive Essentials
package just for kittens and adult cats.

This package includes:

Annual Wellness Exam

100% refund for the exam fee when your kitten or adult cat gets a yearly check-up, vaccines, and tests – key for overall health and catching illnesses early.

Vaccines at the Vet

100% refund for any 1 vaccine at the vet each year – key for protecting your kitten or adult cat against dangerous preventable diseases.

Parasite Screening Tests

100% refund for 1 yearly fecal "poop" test for intestinal worms, including roundworms, hookworms, and whipworms – key for detecting parasite infections early in your kitten or adult cat.

Exciting news alert!

We recently teamed up with several vet hospitals to design custom Preventive Essentials packages for their patients. Get a quote to see if your clinic is a participating hospital.

“When you know that 3 of the most important things for your pet’s health are fully covered, it makes it easier to know you can afford other things they may need to stay healthy throughout the year.”

Preventive Essentials is easy to use – no head or tail spinning required.
