PETS
We've heard it said that the English think more about their pets than their children. We don't really believe this, but most people who have a pet / or pets do think a lot of them and try to look after them properly. Imagine the things that can get covered here - Pet food, grooming, competitions, insurance, vets, and lots, lots more.
If your pet has an accident it can cost you a 'fortune', so to avoid this you have it insured. Then you find that the insurance doesn't cover certain items. Pet food is, of course, an ongoing cost. But the pleasure they give you when you're grooming them, entering competitions, or just being there makes up for those pennies you paid out.
