Pets are awesome but 5 is a lot. And pets are expensive to keep healthy.

If I’m having trouble paying bills and can’t support 5 pets then rehoming is something I need to consider. I don’t think I can expect government support to help me take care of them.

I'm sure we could find things for all the people who live there to lower their expenses. But there is an asymptote to how much people can save.
