    Owning a pet responsibly is like owning a car: there is the expense of regular maintenance, and then every so often you have to drop a wad of money for a major repair.

    Don’t get me wrong, my animals are worth it, but I think some first-time pet owners don’t realize this.

        Pet insurance exists, your options and whether it’s worth it depends on a variety of factors. Look up “pet insurance (location)”.
