Pets are expensive!
During our 9 day camping trip, our puppy ate something that caused daily diarrhea. I took her to the vet and after some tests and prescriptions, the bill came up to nearly $500. The vet also recommended getting her spayed now as she’s 7 months old. Holy crap, that bill is going to be $700 for everything. I didn’t take into account the cost of pet ownership when I put together my annual retirement budget. Her food alone is about $100/mo because she’s such a picky eater. She’s lucky we love her or she’d be up for adoption pronto. There is a limit to how much we’re willing to spend on her though. Does that make me a bad pet owner?
