Pets Infographic

Owners adore doting on their pets. Some of us even spoil them from time to time…or a lot — let’s be honest! In many cases it is a human way of expressing our affection. However, this interesting infographic suggests that no matter how well-intentioned our spending is, there are numerous ways in which our dollars could be helping to save animals in need. Although this study was conducted in America about Americans and their spending habits, I think the general message is something worth thinking about, especially around the holiday season.

What do you think? Have you thought about this before? Are you donating to any shelters this year as a gift? What is your secret for spending balance when it comes to pets? I would love to hear your thoughts!
