I don’t agree that the pet industry is recession-proof. Shelters around me are already asking people to adopt due to animals being dropped off. People are leaving their pets as costs rise and they’re forced to deal with difficult financial choices. While pets have become part of the family, it would seem they are expendable in tough times.

We've been experiencing the same thing in our country. Shelters are asking people to adopt their rescued pets and even asking for donations for them to sustain the needs of those animals. Everyone and everything is badly affected by this recession. Even if pets are part of our families, the price of their necessities has increased as well. We could save them yet we can't deny the fact that it's aching our pockets most of the time.

Keeping pets is getting very expensive these days.
People are unable to meet their own expenses so they are worried how to keep up with the pet expenses
