To add in my 2 cents, I do believe that the original person was describing
something more like a savings account. She wanted to put aside a set amount
of money each month (the premium) and then be able to access that account in
case of emergency. Many people would find it a much smarter idea (and
easier to implement) if they simply opened up a "Christmas Club" account at
their bank.

I agree. If you are concerned about how to pay for unexpected veterinary care
for ANY of your pets, it is a good idea to start a savings account for
emergencies. Another (more expensive) alternative is to have a credit card
whose sole purpose is to pay for emergency vet care.
The same can be said about a savings account (or credit card) for emergency
HUMAN medical care, emergency car repairs, emergency home repairs, etc. In
general, it is a good idea to have a savings account (or investment account)
for any type of emergencies. Or, a credit card if you wish. Heck, growing
up, my parents had a savings account used to pay taxes every year!
Just my thoughts.
