Most Expensive Cat

 

Cats and dogs are the most popular pet animals in the United States as they are great companions who bring comfort to millions of homes. However, the price of a pet is not always a sign of its quality, but the expensive breeds always have their own unique features. We have already written an article about the most expensive dogs. In this article, you will know the most expensive cat breeds with their great characteristics:

 

 

The most expensive cat breeds:

 

1. Ashera ($22,000-$125,000)

 

This cat breed is the most expensive cat breed in the world ranging between $22,000-$125,000). Since 2006, 100 Ashera cats are only sold every year. So, if you are interested in having a cat of this breed, that was sold from 5-6 figures by the Lifestyle Pets company that developed it, you should expect to wait up to ten months.

 

2. Savannah ($10,000-$25,000)

 

Crossing a wild Serval cat and a Siamese cat gives us the Savannah cats, which are a hybrid breed.

The main reason for being one of the most expensive cat breeds is the low fertility rates among males. However, this breed is the tallest cat breed.

 

3. Toyger ($5,000)

 

This breed, which is one of the newest cat breeds, behaves like an adorable domesticated kitten but looks like a striped tiger.

 

If you are looking to buy Toyger cats, you should know that a part of sales is donated to benefit Tiger conservation by the breeders.

 

4. Bengal ($4,000-$10,000)

 

Bengal cats look like wild cats as their size is so large, and their coat is exotically spotted. What makes this breed one of the most expensive cat breeds is the effort and time involved in producing a Bengal cat.

 

5. Persian ($1,800-$5,500)

 

The Persian cats, who have calm personalities, sweet faces, and beautiful, flowing coats, are some of the most beautiful cats in the world. However, what makes the Persians among the most expensive cat breeds in the world is that they are completely purebred.

 

 

6. Peterbald ($1,700-$3,000)

 

This cat breed is one of the most expensive cat breeds in the world. This is due to being a breed of Russian origin considered a great affectionate and loyal feline companion. However, the Peterbald cat is so rare and hairless.

 

 

7. Russian Blue ($500-$3,000)

 

The beauty of this loyal, sweet cat breed is the very-known thing about it with startlingly bright eyes, and a thick, gorgeous grey-blue coat. The beauty of this breed is enough reason to be among the most expensive cats.

 

8. British Shorthair ($1,500-$2,000)

 

Having large rounded paws, eyes, and head and being one of the oldest breeds make the British Shorthair so appreciated!

However, they are so expensive for being so small in numbers and having no health issues from breeding.

 

 

9. Sphynx ($900-$2,000)

 

The cats of this breed are known for their desire to snuggle with their owners all the time as well as their lack of fur. They are expensive as they are purebred.

 

 

10. Scottish Fold ($800-$1,500)

 

The origin of this cat breed is Susie, a barn cat, who had distinct folded ears.

 

What makes the price tag of this breed so high is that it has round bodies, eyes, and face, which are so adorable. However, after its photos were shared online by Taylor Swift and Ed Sheeran, the price has also raised a little bit.
