Don’t Forget Your Pets

I spend lots of time trying to trim down the grocery bills based on what myself, DH and the kids will and will not eat. I plan out crock-pot meals, clip coupons and create menus around what’s on sale this week. But for some reason I am never frugal when it comes to pet care. I have two very spoiled, very overweight Persian cats who have sensitive tummies. In the past I’ve always been willing to splurge for the good cat food so I can avoid the cat vomit that I will undoubtedly step in at 3am in the morning (YUCK!) However, over at Blissfully Domestic, they’ve put together a list of ways you can save money on your pet - even if you have finicky pets like mine.

Head Online for Pet Medications- As with hair care products at the salon, you can get pet medications for a lot less anywhere but your vet’s office. I’d been buying heart worm prevention medicine from my vet for years, and only recently checked into 1-800-Pet-Meds and PetCareRX. Both offer free standard shipping and I saved at least 20 percent over my vet’s office. Geesh, what took me so long to switch over?
