Wonderful very informative article. I work for a veterinarian and I found the article to be very factual. Owning a pet is serious business and should not be taken lightly. Pets can be very demanding of your time and money. Just like a child they require love, attention and special care. There are a lot of costs involved in owning a pet. Diseases like cancer, diabetes and thyroid problems are not uncommon in pets today. These can all be very expensive to treat. Routine vaccinations, spay/neuter costs, routine dental treatments, pet foods, heartworm preventatives, and flea/tick preventatives are all costly. However, ignoring these maintenance routines can be an even larger monetary burden!
I love pets and think owning a pet is a wonderful responsibility. But it is just that a responsibility!
