I personally would never trivialize a cat's life to the point where it was only worthwhile to keep it around if it continued to serve my pleasure.

Is there a line? how much would you spend? $1,000, $5,000, 10,000?
I recently spent $3,000 on our cat, it added up quickly. Not sure how much higher i'd be willing to go to be honest.
I believe there are some vets where it's only a business, they'll recommend this and that, driving up the cost, knowing that many pet owners are willing to spend that money and not necessarily considering the best interest of the pet or financial implications on the owners.
It's a huge business, prices are regulated, some offer insurance, financing...
