With more and more people losing their jobs, becoming homeless, or being evicted from their homes, their four-legged friends are starting to suffer. People cannot afford their homes or their pets and many animals are being sent to shelters or let loose to fend for themselves. Humane societies have seen a quadruple in the number of animals they are receiving, and adoptions are slowing. Japanese police recently arrested a dog breeder who allowed close to 100 animals starve to death in their kennels. The man had apparently run out of money to buy pet food and abandoned his kennels after being pressured by money lenders to repay his debts.
Are you a pet owner facing financial hardships? Here are some tips for you:
- Always keep your pet on a leash outdoors. Free roaming animals are more prone to accidents, resulting in veterinary bills.
- Inform your veterinarian of your tight finances and ask that they only administer the basics needed to keep your pet healthy (ie. essential vaccinations)
- Consider getting pet health insurance.
- Buy your pet less expensive toys.
