I have been looking too, but from what I have read, it isn't worth it. Maybe if you had a huge heard?
For just my two pigs, I am trying to save up an emergency fund.

It is the only way I can afford my guinea pigs. I pay $9 a month per pig, and they paid $650 on a $1150 bill (two of the things they didn't cover). I really recommend VPI-Veterinary Pet Insurance.
They don't cover preexisting conditions, but they were very nice when my pig passed.

Ok, I still have not called them. I need to. I still don't know what I want to do.

I have policies on all my pigs from VPI pet insurance.
My vet told me that it was the only pet insurance company that he had seen that was worth the cost. He works at an animal hospital and specializes in exotics. He deals with insurance every day, and said that VPI does not give the pet owners the run around, and extreme levels of grief before paying out on a claim.
I did some research and have to say that I agree with him. Thank God that I have not had to use the insurance yet.
I pay $75 a year per guinea pig, and they cover nearly all conditions and have a low deductable.
Here is the link that covers guinea pigs, you can download a PDF file with the cost and coverage information :

Do they reimburse you after you pay or does it work like people insurance, you pay what is left over?
I don't quite understand the maximum limits at the top and then some of the numbers below that are much higher?
