Just don't take cats to the vet. I spend tons of money on my dogs, but the cats rarely cost anything. Most of them have the decency to run away and die in the woods when they get sick.

When our cat would not eat it was just over $1K for blood work , knockout juice (he's almost rabid at the vet- hates it) and the meds to get him straight.

Wife's car was $1,400 for new breaks/rotors/oil change and transmission service. Unfortunately you have to maintain vehicles or they will let you down. Did you look and see if that pothole drove part of the sheet metal of the car onto your tire, that would make it do all of that?
I tried looking under there, but I'll be honest, I'm extremely lacking in the automotive knowledge area. There were some other shitty symptoms that were already happening (naturally a month or so after all that maintenance) that I thought maybe I was just imagining, but also got worse after the pothole. Hitting the breaks intermittently causes the car to kind of shudder and then the "whirr" I hear in the cabin when driving between like 35-55mph is much, much louder than it used to be. Taking it in tomorrow to a small place in town I've used before that hasn't raked me over the coals.

Depending on where you live, some cities have pothole damage claims you can file. I'm in Seattle and popped a tire and the city covered about half of it because they were older tires.

Seattle you say? Should have claimed it also destroyed your heroin. Then when you get the heroin say you cant really have heroin without narcan so you get that too. Then you take the heroin and give it to some shabby homeless guy and, once he hits the perfect state of high, narcan them back to the reality of them being homeless.

Further rustle... Kajiimagi Kajiimagi

Who doesn't do their own car maintenance?
Everything you listed would have cost $250 in your driveway with a couple hours of your time. Fuck, I'd do it for free for you.
Well if you want to come to Nevada , come here I'll take you up on it. At one point in my life I thought I wanted to be a mechanic. Then I realized I cannot stand to be greasy. Now I gladly pay someone else to be greasy for me.

And yeah my bad on break/brake, I know better !
