EnsurApet, Inc. (OTCBB:EPTI), a provider of pet health insurance, announced that the Company's "Protect 4" Pet Health Insurance Plans offer dog and cat owners an insurance plan which provides coverage for preventive and medical treatments of common canine and feline illnesses.

The EnsurApet "Protect 4" plan provides the most coverage of any pet insurance plan in the marketplace today. The coverage includes vaccinations, dental cleaning, kitten boosters, puppy boosters, feline infectious peritonitis and feline leukemia as well as vaccines. The "Protect 4" Insurance Plan is a complete healthcare plan for preventive and major medical care.

"With over 141 Million dogs and cats in the United States alone and over 62% of all US households owning a pet there is clearly a demand for our 'Protect 4' Insurance Plans. EnsurApet is one of only three pet health insurance providers industry-wide to offer such coverage. This allows EnsurApet to rapidly expand its market share and to substantially increase the company's number of policy holders through joint venture projects with major pet retails across the country looking for ways to provide additional products to their customers," stated Russell Smith, CEO.

The Company's "Protect 4" policy covers the most common dog and cat illnesses including:

- Urinary Tract Infections. Commonly treated with Antibiotics.
- Upper Respiratory Infection (known as URI), which is very similar to the common cold in humans.
- Feline Distemper caused by a virus, however curable with the vaccine, Feline Distemper (FVRCVP).
- Chronic Kidney Failure. Common treatments include an IV drip for dehydration and kidney dialysis.
- Diabetes in cats. There are a number of possible treatments including cat insulin shots.
- Parvovirus in dogs, categorized as a viral disease.
- Rabies virus. Commonly prevented by vaccination.
- Distemper, caused by a virus referred to as CDV (canine distemper virus).
