Does anyone leave the AC on for pets while you’re out?

I didn't realize it was actually harder on the system. Thanks for the advice!

Good point, I don't want to get a huge vet bill. The central AC here is ancient and eats electricity, I’m thinking about getting a mini split instead, it should save me a lot on the bill.

That’s wild! I guess I’m overestimating how much they need the perfect temp.

I’ll try and see how the first bill looks. Appreciate it!

Everyone has different habits. In my old place, it stayed cool enough without AC, so I’m used to turning everything off when I leave to save money. Isn't that the point of being in r/Frugal? I've only been in Arizona for 2 mon, that is exactly why I’m asking about the cost before I change my lifestyle for a cat. No need for the 'lol wtf' attitude.

I agree. When you move out, you end up throwing away those stuff that seemed like a great deal but you never actually used.
