Field notes
The calculator exposes assumptions including budget level, food choice, grooming frequency, insurance, and a 3.5% annual inflation setting. Navigation also separates dog and cat costs into monthly, first-year, food, procedure, and end-of-life topics. The homepage says sources accompany its figures, though the extracted text does not show how estimates are calculated.
