I think if I really calculate the total, it shld be around $200 a month. I normally order pets supplies once a month, but these days I do it twice a month. Cos my regular pet shop doesn't have some things I want, I gotta order from another shop. Actually, the one paying for the pet supplies is my bf. He's the one working what, I not working. But the air-con is paid by my mum la (I only on at night, but I do on it now, cos it's very hot, I scared my chins die).
For me, I pay for vet's fees actually. Cos I'm the one alwiz bringing the pets to the vet, eg. cat or chinchilla. My bf not free. So I pay for that, lucky it's not too often. Hehe.

actually for those who find BC expensive can mix with Woody Pets to last longer lor... But this advisable for hamster owners only lor... Cos, bunnies tend to get the saw dust all over themselves... unless bunnies got short fur lor.. and litter trained also..

for bunnies, not very advisable to use pine beddings. got reports in web and books saying it's not very good lor... though some reports in web and books say it's good... but i still dun find it good, due to the dust and that the bedding crumbles... not good for their noses.
