Managing the Costs of Pet Cat Health Care

Basic items required to care for a pet cat are:

• Food
• Kitty litter
• Bedding 
• Scratching post
• Travel carrier 
• Spay or Neutering
• Vaccinations
• Annual veterinary exam

In addition to the above basic cat care items, consider the likelihood of an emergency visit to the veterinarian and if pet health insurance would be beneficial for you and your pet cat.

"The cost of keeping a cat doesn't end at the cat food bowl. But it usually starts there. Here's a list of the costs associated with typical care. These costs do not include care for emergency situations and illnesses. That's where cat health insurance really can pay off."

The above quote was taken from, Cat Health Insurance - Taking a Nip Out of the Cost of Keeping a Cat, which provides some great information regarding the cost of caring for a pet cat and the importance of pet health insurance.
