Including car accidents, fractures, poisoning, wounds and when they swallow things they shouldn’t.
Vet costs for accidental injury
Skin, ear and eye conditions, hip dysplasia, cruciate ligament conditions, cancer and more.

As long as you continue to hold the cover, meet its conditions and pay your premium, we will not refuse to provide you with a Renewal Policy based on the number of claims you have made or if your pet has developed chronic conditions. However, your premium may increase at the renewal.
Dental illness
Keep their teeth well intact with cover for treatment for gingivitis, abscesses or periodontal disease. Unlike many of our competitors, there are no sub limits attached to the treatment costs or vet expenses related to dental illnesses.
Please note that any routine or elective dental procedures such as teeth cleaning are not covered under dental illnesses.
Behavioural problems
For when your dog or cat doesn’t seem like their usual self – excessive licking, fur pulling, pacing and destructive chewing.

Frequently asked questions
Still have questions about ExtrasJar Pet Insurance cover? Take a look at the frequently asked questions below or reach out to our customer support team. We’ll be more than happy to help.
What pets are eligible?
ExtrasJar Pet Insurance is available to your companion cats and dogs that reside with you in Australia. We do not cover any other type of pets.
Our Policy has been designed for companion pets and therefore it is not possible to purchase cover for all cats and dogs.
Banned breeds
Certain breeds are considered dangerous and/or are banned in Australia. It is not possible to purchase cover for a dangerous or banned breed. If Your Pet’s breed is categorised as dangerous and/or banned in Australia after purchase or renewal of Your Policy, then Your Pet will no longer be eligible for this Policy and We will send You notice of non-renewal prior to the expiry of Your current Period of Insurance.
Work or sporting activities
Cats and dogs participating in commercial or sporting activity such as breeding or obstetrics, working, fighting, racing, personal protection, gun sports, law enforcement or guarding are not eligible for cover. Note that it is possible to purchase cover for pets who participate in or are show dogs/cats, search and rescue dogs, guide dogs, assistance dogs or customs sniffer dogs.
Are there age limits?
Once you have insurance, there is no age limit. However, there are minimum and maximum ages for starting insurance.
Minimum and maximum age of Pets on entry
When purchasing a new Policy:
- the minimum age for entry for a Pet is 6 weeks old; and
- the maximum age for entry is 8 years and 364 days old.
Are there Exclusions Periods?
Exclusion Periods apply to certain benefits available under the Policy. Cover is only available after the Exclusion Period has elapsed.
a. Accidental Injury (except Specified Conditions) - 1 day
b. Illness (except Specified Conditions)- 14 days
c. Dental Illness - 14 days – pets under 1 year old or 6 months – pets 1 year old or over
d. Behavioural Problems - 6 months
e. Specified Conditions - 6 months
You may ask us to waive the Exclusion Period for some or all the Specified Conditions, and other Conditions (e.g. Dental Illness). When you take out a policy, we will provide an Application Form to apply for a reduction of Exclusion Period(s) for You and Your vet to complete.
Specified Conditions include cruciate ligament damage, intervertebral disc disease, hip dysplasia, patella luxation, elbow dysplasia, osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), cherry eye, entropion, ectropion, and Brachycephalic Obstructive Airway Syndrome (BOAS) and Lumps. Lumps are not considered a Specified Condition if Your Pet was under one (1) year old on the First Date of Cover or when Your cover increased.
What is sub-limits?
ExtrasJar Pet Insurance has NO-SUB LIMITS. None. If you need to take your fur baby to the vet, you know what you are covered for.
Sub-limits are also known as a “condition limit” or “per incident limit”. A sub-limit acts as a ceiling, reducing claims made on a pet insurance policy per year (period of insurance), for treating certain conditions. A sub limit adds an extra restriction on certain veterinary expenses, common examples including limits on cruciate ligament surgery, hip dysplasia, dental illness and/or vet consultations.
What are the Extras?
Extra benefits are included as standard and cover:
- Vet Costs for Dental Illness such as dental diseases, gingivitis, periodontal disease.
- Vet Costs for Behavioural Problems such as excessive licking, fur pulling, pacing and destructive chewing.
- Vet Costs for Specialised Therapies such as acupuncture, physiotherapy, hydrotherapy.
Please note that the extra benefits do not include cover for general dental check-up and clean (for Dental Illness), and do not include routine or elective treatments or supplements (for Alternative Therapies).
For full details about what is and isn’t covered you should always refer to the Product Disclosure Statement.
How does an Annual Excess work?
If You choose to add an Annual Excess to Your Policy this amount needs to be met before We begin to pay benefits for accepted claims, at the chosen Benefit Percentage. Your Annual Excess will only be applied to accepted claims. Your Annual Excess will reset at the start of each Period of Insurance.
For example:
