HOW TO MONTHLY BUDGET FOR A PET
Creature Companions|December 2023
Bringing a new furry member into the family is a joyous occasion, but it also means making adjustments in your budget. To ensure a fulfilling pet ownership experience, it's wise to establish a budget plan.

HOW TO MONTHLY BUDGET FOR A PET

Considering myself a devoted pet lover, I prefer the term 'pet lover' over 'pet parent'. Once a pet enters your home, they become a cherished part of the family. However, they do require a considerable amount of care and attention, making it essential to have a monthly budget specifically tailored to their needs. While this may vary based on the breed, having a standardized system can simplify the planning process. Different breeds have varying requirements. For instance, a Shih Tzu, though small, can be relatively high-maintenance due to regular grooming needs, including haircuts costing between 800*1000 every 10-15 days. Labradors, being low-maintenance with short coats, only require occasional grooming.
