I duno..I spend a lot of money on just food, vet bills and toys!! I don't know exactly what was most expensive..when it comes to them I don't think so much of the price (but regret it later when I have no money :o) Josie's training costs me the most though probably ;) We also go 2 fenced in yards for them. One at our old place, and another at the newer place we moved to (we built both of them on our own..phew)
They're too damn expensive!
$1400 surgery!
But for tangible things... probably the crate. I think it was $90.
but hey you saved you doggie life!! right?Quote:

i think mostly on food he eats lots.....and treats...:D
Tuna's $1500 intestinal surgery. Stupid cat. Sometimes I wish I didn't love him so much. :D
For Kai, his health. He's one expensive pooch!
For Kaedyn, his training. It'll cost me roughly $600 for private lessons.
And for the birdies, their cage.
I'm thinking about getting a digital SLR camera though.. (you know, just to take better pictures of the pets). If I get it, it'll definitely be the most expensive thing I've bought (for them, of course ;)).
Us too! We bought our Jeep Liberty, with mainly Dale in mind. He could no longer fit comfortably in my Civic...so he was our reason for upgrading :) We also made sure we got leather interior so that his hair wouldn't stick to the seats...the way it did to the fabric seats.Quote:

Other than that...Harlee's crate was like $90...oh and their training was probably around $150 each...
One more thing...we got our split rail fence just for Dale!! :) (and now Harlee)...that was around $800 ( since we installed it ourselves)...
We dont have to have a big car for Roxy. She sits on my lap LOL. :D
Probably Finn's crate. But, that was a necessary thing...let's see...as far as just something I wanted to get, that I could have gotten a functional one for a lot less...ok, for my RB boy, Bruno...it would have to be his leather collar and leash, each was over $40. So, close to $90 for a leash and collar set. And, for Finn... his life jacket cost over $30. There have been several beds I have seen that, once he matures, I'll buy him...:) I've seen a few for over $100, and, that'll top the list, I'm sure.
I don't mind spending money on my pets :) they deserve it. Even the un-necessary things:D
When I first brough Miley and Graemer home, I ordered really fancy collars for them. I think they were around $70 each. They were (past tense) beads on elastic with really neat charms in the middle that hung down their little chests. They were hand made and looked really nice on the cats.
BUT the cats thought otherwise and proceeded to chew them off and then to pieces. I still have part of one of the collars. What a collosal waste of money that was.
They did look so nice on the cats though. I think the collars lasted all of two days before they were destroyed.
I have an expensive cat tree for them too.
The biggest vet bill was for Graemer, right before he died. The one vet bill for 1/2 day at a specialist's was $2,100.00. He died there. He was worth every penny. I really wish I could have saved him. He was a dear kitty, filled with spunk and lots of love!
In general, the most money is spent at the Vet's.
Autumn has her big luxury crate and Sunny has his self cleaning litter box. Besides those two things I'm pretty cheap. I like to buy a lot of cheap things rather than a few expensive things. Autumn has several collars and a big box of squeak toys because if they are under a buck a piece I grab a whole cart load. I found some cute hawaiian themed hats for dogs at walmart for a quarter each, then I bought all the colours so I ended up paying two bucks. Still cheap but I do this with everything.
Jeep Liberty here too. I had a lil' 2 door Toyota Rav 4 and traded it in for the bigger SUV, before I got Oz. I've had several people give me the look at having an SUV, suggesting I need a lil' economy car. Uh how would Oz and Gull fit in the back seat of lil' car?
My mom has my Rav 4 now and she took Oz to the grocery store with her. He was half in the front, half in the back and hunched over. A lil' car just isn't practical with 2 big dogs.
Par...
Wal-Mart has really good deals on Pet Stuff. Roxy doesnt really play with toys much though. Skye has alot of cheaper toys rather than a few pricey ones. The only toy Rufus has is his car :) Actually, heres his car :)

I guess it would have to be the car. We got a 2002 Kia Rio so Lucy could look out the window:D that's one of her favorite things to do and it has four doors. Our old car a 1991 Ford Escort completely died so it was time for a new vehicle anyway.
I am going to buy the cats a big cat tree, they would just love it as long as it was right by the window.
