As most households in the UK feel the pressure from the cost of living crisis, our pets can become yet another expense to worry about.
Pet food bills are one of the largest monthly outgoings for pet owners but it’s important that pets stay properly nourished.
There are a number of pet food banks available across the country, and a quick Google search will bring up those available in your local area.Keeping your pet clean is key to their wellbeing. However, for breeds that require regular grooming, this can be a huge cost for owners. By kitting yourself out with the recommended brushes, clippers and shampoos you can save a stack of money.
Shopping second hand for toys or sleeping supplies is another good option. Sourcing your pet a new toy from Gumtree or Facebook Marketplace, or even your local charity shop, will keep them just as entertained as one bought from a pet store. Not only will this save you money, but it's a more environmentally friendly option.Research reveals that 70 per cent of pet owners are not actually aware of what they spend each year on their fur fam.
