I am an animal lover and have never considered the financial implications of adding another pet to my life. We've loved to adopt and foster dogs through our local shelter for years, and it seemed like an affordable way to make a positive difference in the animals' lives.
Saw this video this morning breaking down expected lifetime costs of cats and dogs. Yikes. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ma3Mt5BPlTE
Is your experience that it really can cost the price of a nice used car to have even one pet in your home? What can help those costs, and how can I plan accordingly? Items like medical costs or property damage are super hard to quantify...
