I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

        Plus rabbits love cardboard. Toilet rolls and plain boxes get your surprisingly far with two rabbits! The only toys I’ll buy are the edible ones - willow tunnels for example. Watching them play with something you make is part of the joy.

        Yeah I’d argue this is probably true for bigger pets but the LD50 of stuff on your 2lb guinea pig is hit shockingly fast. Gotta watch out for the small, furry comrades

        Yeah tbh if you paid for the cat toy more than $5 you’ve almost certainly wasted money. Mine gets bored of most toys after a few days except for a few banger toys he still uses, but those also cost like $5.

      Largely have to disagree with you there. The more expensive toys usually last a lot longer with my dogs.

        I agree, I’ve got a large dog and he can demolish cheap toys within hours but the good quality ones will last months
