If you\u2019re curious about the most expensive house cats in the world, following is a list of the ones that are known to cost a lot of money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>You might also want to read this: <a href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-friendliest-cat-breeds\/\">Top 10 friendliest cats<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_17 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-grey\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" style=\"display: none;\"><i class=\"ez-toc-glyphicon ez-toc-icon-toggle\"><\/i><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class=\"ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1\"><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#1_Ashera_Cat\" title=\"1# Ashera Cat\">1# Ashera Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#2_Savannah_Cat\" title=\"2# Savannah Cat\">2# Savannah Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#3_Bengal_Cat\" title=\"3# Bengal Cat\">3# Bengal Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#4_Allerca_Cat\" title=\"4# Allerca Cat\">4# Allerca Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#5_Persian_Cats\" title=\"5# Persian Cats\">5# Persian Cats<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#6_Peterbald_Cat\" title=\"6# Peterbald Cat\">6# Peterbald Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#7_Sphynx_Cat\" title=\"7# Sphynx Cat\">7# Sphynx Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#8_Russian_Blue_Cat\" title=\"8# Russian Blue Cat\">8# Russian Blue Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-9\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#9_Scottish_Fold_Cat\" title=\"9# Scottish Fold Cat\">9# Scottish Fold Cat<\/a><\/li><li class=\"ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2\"><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-10\" href=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats\/#10_American_Curl_Cat\" title=\"10# American Curl Cat\">10# American Curl Cat<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Ashera_Cat\"><\/span>1# <strong>Ashera Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ashera cat can easily run more than $100,000, mostly because they can be considered \u201cdesigner\u201d cats. Ashera cats were specifically bred to get the results seen today, and they look like mini-leopards. With a lifespan of 12 to 14 years, the cats are rare, exotic, and quite large, usually weighing up to 40 lbs. The Ashera cat is playful and very intelligent, and if you\u2019re looking for a cat that is sociable and loves to be around other cats and humans, this is it. Naturally, not everyone can afford this cat, but the ones that can certainly love it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Savannah_Cat\"><\/span>2# <strong>Savannah Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Savannah cats are a bit controversial because they are a cross between a domesticated cat and a wild cat, which many people do not like. They have a long neck and are therefore nicknamed the giraffe cat, and their tall, lean body gives them an exotic beauty that you don\u2019t often see in cats. They cost around $50,000 and the people who breed them say they are just as safe and pleasant to have around the house as any other domesticated cats. But at this price, you\u2019d better be sure you want one before you buy it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Bengal_Cat\"><\/span>3# <strong>Bengal Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Bengal cats cost around $30,000 and are a cross between a domestic Shorthair cat and an Asian leopard cat. They are very big cats and are strong enough to survive in the wild, yet they make excellent house cats as well. They are a fun pet as long as you give them plenty to do because if you don\u2019t, they tend to get themselves into some trouble, which usually includes making a total mess of your house!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Allerca_Cat\"><\/span>4# <strong>Allerca Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>When the Allerca cats were first bred, their breeders promised that they would not cause their owners any allergy problems, but many people claim this isn\u2019t true. Still, these cats cost around $6,000 and do produce an allergy-reducing protein, called Fel D1, yet it seems that their other abilities are no more different than any other domesticated cat. These \u201chypoallergenic\u201d cats were developed by an American company and are still purchased by people who love cats but who tend to have allergies to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"5_Persian_Cats\"><\/span>5# <strong>Persian Cats<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Persian cats are usually around $5,500 and are extremely popular with pet owners in America, Asia, and all throughout Europe. They have an adorable round face and come in a variety of colors, and their long fur is one of the things that makes them so lovable. Persian cats are very friendly but don\u2019t have a lot of energy, making them a good choice for households without any children. Interestingly, they\u2019ve been around since the 17th century and their fur requires a lot of grooming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"6_Peterbald_Cat\"><\/span>6# <strong>Peterbald Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Costing roughly $5,000, the Peterbald cat lives up to its name because it is a completely hairless animal. These cats are affectionate, very energetic, curious, and have sweet dispositions. These days, they are quite trendy and popular among pet lovers, and like other cats, Peterbald cats were specifically bred to get the cat we see today. One of the things that makes the cat so unique is that it has a very high metabolism, causing it to consume a lot more food than the average cat does.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"7_Sphynx_Cat\"><\/span>7# <strong>Sphynx Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Sphynx cat costs around $4,000, and has been around since first being bred in the 1960s. While most of these cats are completely hairless, many others will have patches of short fur all over their body. They have large ears and eyes and wedge-shaped heads, and because they are not completely covered with fur, you have to keep them out of direct sunlight so they don\u2019t get skin cancer. These are very popular cats and they can come in different colors, including some that are two-toned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"8_Russian_Blue_Cat\"><\/span>8# <strong>Russian Blue Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At a cost of roughly $3,000, these are beautiful cats with soft fur that is blue-gray in color with a touch of lavender in it, not to mention bright-green eyes. They are beloved cats and are popular all over the world, and once people see what they look like, they understand why. Not only are they beautiful animals, but they have great personalities as well. They are intelligent, energetic, and very friendly, and they can also be very curious and tranquil cats. For these and many other reasons, the Russian Blue cat is still a very popular household pet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"9_Scottish_Fold_Cat\"><\/span>9# <strong>Scottish Fold Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Scottish Fold cat costs around $3,000 and has been around since the 1960s. They have ears that are folded over toward the front of their head, and they are very affectionate and loving. In fact, they are so popular that many celebrities own this breed of cat. Many people are trying to ban the breeding of these cats because they argue that the ears are a mutation that causes them to have an increased risk of painful diseases such as arthritis. Others say that if they are bred with another breed and not another Scottish Fold, this possibility isn\u2019t a problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"10_American_Curl_Cat\"><\/span>10# <strong>American Curl Cat<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The American Curl cat costs around $2,600 and has ears that curl backward instead of standing up straight, hence its name. They live to be around 13 years old and weigh a mere 5 to 10 lbs. One of the traits that makes them so popular is their loving personality. In fact, these cats are so amicable that they can get along with everyone in the household, including both young people and older ones, not to mention other animals. If you want a cat with a pleasant, nondisruptive personality, this is the cat to choose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img src=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/top-10-most-expensive-house-cats-Pin-template-02-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"top 10 most expensive house cats\" class=\"wp-image-3574\"\/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cats are beloved animals that are found in millions of households all over the world.
