Whether you're a human or an animal, living expenses add up. We just want to live normal lives, but living a normal life is way more expensive than we could have ever anticipated. Same goes for our pets. If you can't afford basic living expenses for yourself, we wouldn't recommend adding a pet into the mix. It takes a whole lot of time, effort, and money to care for a living being other than yourself. If something seems off with our pets, we obviously take them to the vet to check in and see if it's anything serious. We never imagined that a quick visit to the vet could be so expensive. Twitter user @jeremysmiles posted about how hilarious going to the vet is considering the costs. People responded to the original tweet with their own financial trauma stories at the vet. Whoever is considering getting a pet should check their funds first. Scroll down for all the stories.
