whose vet bills reached a new record last year, exceeding property taxes. And Costco.

One investing theme I've liked for years is what I call "expensive pets". Sixty years ago, people were unwilling to spend much on pets and other than vaccinations and some wound care, not much was done. This has totally flipped and some friends spent $14k on chemo for a dog. So companies that do animal health seem like good long term growth prospects.
