He is neutered, chipped, vaccinated, all of that. I don't plan on getting pet insurance right away, I'm still unsure of the cost effectiveness of it, but my company actually offers a pet insurance plan at a discount rate. His adoption fee is $150, my pet deposit will be $200. I have that plus what I plan on paying my parents. Yes, I work for Stark Industries. CEO in fact. I don't need to buy a leash, a collar, or a harness for him, I have double those and they should fit him with some adjustment. I even have a nice gender neutral coat for him and a girly sweater for Della if it gets cold out. If he has to eat his dog food from a paper plate for a while, that is fine but a bowl can't be that expensive. I have enough dog food for 2 Della's for at least month. (And enough food for myself.) I'm looking for a 2nd hand crate (I never needed one for Della) and if push comes to shove, the bathroom will do until I can find one I can afford or get my next fat check (on the 18th). The rescue does not do on site adoption, they will visit a couple of times and do a house visit, so I plan on it taking a few weeks to be able to ACTUALLY adopt Toby. So I might even have had my next check or two by they time its all said and done.
My money in my first bank covers my bills just fine up until I get my next check, and if I need to, I now have some tucked away in my 2nd bank.
I have enough meds for a month and their cost comes out of my HRA.
Oh and its my birthday on Jan 30 and I've asked for money only as a gift.

If push really comes to shove, I'm fairly certain I can sell my used panties online. I've been researching it.

Edit: I also have sick pay again, so if I am out sick for some reason, I will still get pay.
