Why PawSafi Exists
Built in Kenya, With Vets, For Pets
At PawSafi, we believe that pets are family and that they deserve the very best protection. That’s why we’ve created Kenya’s first truly vet-centric pet insurance, designed from the ground up to meet the real needs of pet owners, local clinics, and the animals we all care so deeply about.
Unlike many insurance products born in corporate boardrooms, PawSafi was developed through meaningful collaboration with Kenya’s veterinary community. From the very beginning, we involved practicing vets across the country to help shape the product, define fair and realistic coverage levels, and ensure that claims processes are simple, transparent, and clinic-friendly. Their insight has been invaluable, making sure this policy works not only in theory, but in real life.
PawSafi is a joint initiative between Fred Black Insurance Brokers Ltd and Cannon General Insurance, two respected players in the Kenyan insurance landscape. Fred Black brings deep expertise in designing bespoke insurance solutions tailored to emerging market needs, while Cannon, as the underwriter, provides the financial backing and regulatory strength to ensure long-term reliability and peace of mind.
Whether you’re looking for cover for accidents, unexpected illnesses, or more comprehensive care, PawSafi gives you the confidence to know you’re supported. Every policy reflects our core mission: to make quality pet care more accessible, affordable, and stress-free — for both pet owners and the veterinary professionals who serve them.
This isn’t just another insurance product. It’s a shared commitment to animal welfare, created in Kenya, for Kenya.
