BJ: Do you have a “pet credit card”?
I decided against pet insurance and thought it would be good to have a credit card specifically for pet use (like Vet visits, supplies, etc.). I know of Visa Pet Rewards and Visa Petco but neither of them are offered anymore. Which do you have/recommend or even know about?
PS: Please do not tell me to use a regular credit card. I am aware of that option (obviously) but I’m looking for a card that will give me pet-specific rewards before I do that. (Visa gave double rewards and discounts for Vet visits and stuff like that.)
Also – I’m aware of Care Credit and am checking it out as we speak. But from my understanding it’s only medical.
LOL… No, you don’t need one. This is purely out of curiosity. I wanted to use one card for ALL of my pet’s needs to see how much $ $ my cats are hogging. LOL

err no do i need one
I have CareCredit for vet emergencies I can’t afford to pay out-of-pocket, but don’t otherwise have a special card for my pets. I would just get whatever card you can qualify for with the lowest rate and most favorable terms. The cards with ‘perks’ like double rewards and discounts on specific things generally make up for them by charging higher interest rates, annual fees, and so on, even if the initial terms look favorable, read the fine print as most will raise your rates sky high after the ‘introductory’ period.
