Ragdoll pet insurance

Why insurance matters here

Ragdolls carry a heritable heart condition, hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, alongside kidney risk. Both are chronic. HCM runs $3,000 to $15,000 over time, and polycystic kidney disease adds $1,500 to $5,000 across its course. That $3,000-to-$15,000 cardiac band is the exposure a modest monthly premium is meant to cap.

Typical monthly premium
