my cat keeps getting a urinary tract infection and struvite crystals. i want to insuire him but only if i can get this covered. they have all ther records sent from my vet.
cant i just take him to a new vet, establish him there as a healthy pet and then insure him and have that vet send the insurance the records? of course i wouldnt tell that vet about his old vet

you're an idiot. pet insurance isnt like real people insurance. they arent going to call all the other vets and find records.

you're all stupid. i was talking about waiting until he is healthy, then starting over with a new vet.
why would i give my cat away? ive paid $2500 to keep him alive already. so dont lecture me on responsibilities. jackass

Your new vet will check his urine anyway, as it is usually part of the application process. He will also likely be able to tell if your cat is blocked or has an infection by feeling the bladder.
Yes, it is not people insurance, but you can still get in trouble for insurance fraud. It IS still real insurance, and you will have to sign saying your pet is healthy.
If you cannot afford to care for your pet, I recommend giving it to the SPCA so it can find a responsible owner that will know that vet care is just one of the responsibilities that come with having a pet.

First off, I'm sorry about your cat. I hope he gets better. But won't the new vet do an examination to see if your cat is healthy? I understand why you want to do it but you will eventually get caught & pay anyway plus more. Do you really want to take that chance?

Of course, keeping the cat in your jail cell will be worth it once you get caught for insurance fraud.
