Learn to take care of simple grooming yourself. You don’t need to take your dog to the groomer to give him a bath. Some people even learn to clip their dogs’ nails themselves. Taking care of as much of your pet’s grooming as possible will make it easier to afford the things you can’t do.
Skip fancy foods. There are so many expensive dog foods out there that prey upon the idea that your dog deserves the best food available. The truth is, though, that your pet probably doesn’t need these expensive brands. If you’re concerned about what your pet needs, ask your vet. Unless your pet has special medical concerns, you may be able to get by with cheaper foods available at your favorite discount store.
Make cheap pet toys. Your dog will be happy pulling on a section of rope. Your cat will chase a string or sock around as long as you pull it along the floor. Just make sure that anything you use to play with your pets won’t fall apart in their mouths. You don’t want to create a hazardous situation for your pet.
Don’t skip regular veterinarian visits. It can be tempting to ignore your pet’s regular vet appointments to save money, but it can cost you in the long run. Heartworms, for instance, can be costly to treat and can be deadly to your pet.
Get pet medications online. If your pet needs medication regularly, you can order them online to save money. Whether your pet has a chronic illness, or you just need to order heartworm prevention medicine, you can be sure to get a discount by ordering it through the internet rather than purchasing it from your veterinarian.---Great article that I found the Not Made of Money Blog
Kellogg Company is combining coupons and a cause.
The company launched a program in which consumers who donate $5 or more to Feeding America, the nation's leading hunger relief organization, will receive Kellogg's cereal coupons worth a total of $5.
To donate, consumers visit kelloggs.com/feedingamerica, and click into a secure donation page on the Feeding America site that is branded with the Kellogg's logo.
Samantha Harris, correspondent for "The Insider," is helping Kellogg publicize the program.
Harris kicked it off by presenting the first box of cereal to the Food Bank for New York City's Community Kitchen of West Harlem on Wednesday.
The coupon program is part of an ongoing commitment by Kellogg, which has been a donor since the organization was founded. In April, the company said it will donate an entire day's worth of cereal production (more than 55 million cereal servings) to Feeding America.
