Trupanion Announces the Winners of its truFame Campaign


SEATTLE, Oct. 27, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Trupanion, Inc. (Nasdaq: TRUP), the leading provider of pet medical insurance for cats and dogs, is thrilled to announce the conclusion of its annual truFame campaign.

As the leading provider of medical insurance for pets, Trupanion understands the deep connection between ourselves and our pets, who have become an integral part of our families. The truFame campaign was designed to celebrate this unique bond and give Trupanion's hundreds of thousands of members a chance to showcase their pets to the world.

"We were truly moved by the incredible stories and beautiful photos shared by our members," said Margi Tooth, President of Trupanion. "The truFame campaign is a testament to the bond between pets and their owners, reinforcing our commitment to ensuring pets receive the veterinary care they need. Whether it's a life-saving heart surgery, emergency Parvovirus treatment, surgical removal of a torn nail, or simply the peace of mind that our insurance provides, these member stories exemplify our dedication to helping pets lead healthier, happier lives. We are honored to celebrate these relationships and support our members when their pets need us most."

The campaign sparked enthusiasm from thousands of Trupanion members who shared touching tales and striking photos of their cherished pets. After a thoughtful pre-selection process by Trupanion, a series of finalists was presented to our community.
