I don’t know that I’ve gotten them anything that I would describe as extravagent. Expensive? Definitely.

I spend about 30% of my income on their monthly supplies (mainly food and medications). Probably not the smartest decision financially but I have zero regrets. I love my babies and would spend the whole world’s wealth on them. Which is probably why I am not wealthy 🫣🤑🥸

Water fountain

She absolutely preferred it over a standard bowl

HonkTonkWoman ,

lol, mine did not. They dropped toys in it to make it overflow & discolor the floors.

It now sits in the closet, guess they prefer still water.

6’ cat wheel. Did not run on it once. Drove it two hours to a friend’s house.

$250

My friends' cats use theirs. I think they started getting them to by luring them with treats.

Our cats use it to beg for treats. Very rarely do I see them on it and not meowing for attention.

I buy my Guinea pig fresh veggies every week and buy myself frozen veggies. unfortunately for me my pigs love the expensive ones like cucumber and don’t like cheap veggies like carrot or broccoli.

Bilateral TPLO surgery on my cat’s back legs. It put my wife and I in debt.

And 2 litter robots.

Bilateral TPLO surgery

I see that you love your kitty (2 LRs, maybe multiple kitties?) the proper amount and I nod to you in quiet solidarity.

VelvetStorm ,

2 on the same cat. The vet said she only needed one right now but that the other leg was going to need it in a year or two, and it would be cheaper to do them both at the same time. The post surgery aftercare was rough. We had to keep her locked in a dog cage with a litter box and a small bed for 10 weeks to heal. At the follow-up, the vet said her legs were looking better than she could have hoped for because we actually stuck to the aftercare. Now, the little turd has to be on medication, or her gi flares up, and she throws up several times a day every day.

Poor baby. I’m so glad she has someone who cares as much as you do.

This is a little weird, but I wanted to take my cat on a trip to the beach. For some reason I thought she would enjoy seeing the ocean. Maybe in our next life…

Our bird isn’t with us anymore, but years ago I bought her a special made backpack with mesh windows and some wooden perches inside it so I could take her outside. It was excellent.

For the first 80% of your comment, I was definitely picturing a small backpack on the bird, and I was wondering what the purpose of tiny perches would be.

POTOOOOOOOO ,

Other than surgery? My wife got a cat tree. He loves it.

I have a bonus, the cheapest thing our cat loves is paper bags that we get free from our one grocery store.

The surgery that gutted her like a fishie from stem to stern and then the two weeks of delicate care for her. She decided to grow things inside herself (not cancerous, luckily) but still, you know. Bad.

It was insanely expensive. My mother paid as we couldn’t.

Mother herself has a medically delicate cat, who is actually staying over currently so I can take care of her medical needs while the cat yells at me about how I’m not perfect. But I’m okay at taking care of her. So I get the honor of doing whatever the cat wants, immediately.

I bought my cat a massive cat tree also and have zero regrets, she loves it.

Litter Robot. But, if I’m being honest, I bought it for myself.

I got it on the recommendation of a family member. 9 outta 10 would recommend. It gets stuck once in a great while and doesn’t sort the litter / feces, requiring mild intervention. Game changer because one of our kitties stopped burying (I think because she’s a Maine Coon and was bad at it due to size constraints in the old litter box, despite having the largest available).

Medical care. Worth it.

Odelay42 ,

Came here to say:

  • thyroid medication
  • obstruction surgery
  • cancer surgery and treatment
  • cardiology to treat dilated cardiomyopathy.

Probably cost $25k over the years. I’m extremely grateful our pet insurance covered 80-90% of that.

Dude just turned 10 and he’s healthy and happy enough to start treating his arthritis.

Stovetop ,

A self-cleaning litterbox. Absolutely worth it.

AlternateRoute ,

Which one specifically?

iamdisillusioned ,

I got the litter robot. I’ve had it 9 months. I have a cat that loves to dig and the rubber liner doesn’t look like it’s going to hold up for more than 2 years because she scratches the same spot relentlessly, but I still love it. I’d buy a new one every other year if I needed to.

VehicleTree ,

I have one too and it’s been great. They sell replacement parts including the rubber liner if you need one soon: litter-robot.com/litter-robot-4-globe-liner.html

iamdisillusioned , (edited )

Awesome, thanks for sharing! I ordered my free replacement. Glad I got the 3 year warranty.

proudblond ,

Same here. It’s a very painfully expensive purchase but now that we’ve had one, I’d pull that trigger again in a heartbeat if something happened to this one. I wish it was easier to deep clean but otherwise it is fantastic. We have three cats and empty the bin probably twice a week, still waaaay better than scooping. And the really prissy cat likes her clean litter.

Her ashes.

Why did you buy your pet some ashes?

2ugly2live ,
@2ugly2live@lemmy.world avatar

Lol, not ashes for her, of her. She was cremated when she passed and getting her ashes specifically was pricey.

This dog bed: bigbarker.com

Got it with the waterproof protector and an extra cover so I can wash one at a time easily. Totally worth it, I could sleep on this thing its so comfy.
