All parents know that having a kid is expensive. But you probably don't know just how expensive it really is to spawn.

Before you breed, you should know that if you had a kid in 2013, the cost of raising that little rug rat is going  over $245,000 over the kid's lifetime.  That's clothes, food, and stuff like that... it doesn't count how much it's going to cost to send your little bundle of joy to college one day.

Sure they're cute as babies, but man they're expensive.  Maybe you should just get a kitten from Boise's Simply Cats instead.  Kittens are cheaper, and they use the litter box.  Try getting your newborn to do that.
