What's the most extravagant thing you've bought for your pet, and do you regret it? (lemmy.blahaj.zone)

Inspired by watching my cat lay on her 6' (2 m) tall cat tower and sleep like a baby. Zero regrets, even if it makes us look like insane cat people for having a giant cat tower right in our living room. She lives here, she gets furniture too!

The surgery that gutted her like a fishie from stem to stern and then the two weeks of delicate care for her. She decided to grow things inside herself (not cancerous, luckily) but still, you know. Bad.

It was insanely expensive. My mother paid as we couldn't.

Mother herself has a medically delicate cat, who is actually staying over currently so I can take care of her medical needs while the cat yells at me about how I'm not perfect. But I'm okay at taking care of her. So I get the honor of doing whatever the cat wants, immediately.
