There&rsquo;s nothing wrong with wanting a luxurious kitty enriching your space, both with her beauty and her purrsonality. If that&rsquo;s the case, you might be interested in designer cat breeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As they&rsquo;re usually a cross of two or more breeds, these unique kitties are also called hybrids. Although they&rsquo;re a great addition to a family full of feline enthusiasts, designer cat breeds are often harder to find, and they cost a little fortune.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only are they unique-looking, but these feline beauties have a rare personality that is simply hard to resist. Since they&rsquo;re hybrids of other breeds, they get traits from different ancestry, so we end up with fluffs that are like no other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you have a couple of favorite breeds that you&rsquo;d love to have, but can only adopt one kitty? Maybe you&rsquo;re in luck and there&rsquo;s one beautiful feline that&rsquo;s a cross of your favorite breeds, waiting for you to take her home. Here are some of the most popular designer cat breeds, so you can pick your favorite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.

Doesn&rsquo;t that sound like a dream come true? Well, you don&rsquo;t have to imagine. You just have to pay around $50,000 for a beautiful Savannah. A real bargain, isn&rsquo;t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These beautiful kitties are a result of breeding a wild African Serval with a domestic cat. Not only are they unique-looking, but their personality makes them amazing furry companions. These one-of-a-kind purrers love to play in the water, and can even be trained to walk on a leash. Yes, we&rsquo;re still talking about a cat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have other smaller pets in your home such as fish, birds, or hamsters, Savannah might not be the best choice for you due to their amazing hunting instincts. Despite this, they get along pretty well with other animals of their size and have mild temperaments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another thing you should pay attention to is the size of your home. These tiger-shaped kitties aren&rsquo;t made for small apartment life. They need plenty of space to jump, climb, and run around. These majestic fluffs can jump eight feet high, so nothing&rsquo;s safe!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

As a hybrid of Asian Leopard cat and African Serval, these feline beauties can be incredibly tall and weigh up to 30 pounds!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On top of her unique looks, this kitty is especially interesting because of her personality, which some people might find more similar to dogs than cats. Despite their pretty wild appearance, Ashera cats are pretty calm but vocal. And, you can even teach them to walk on a leash!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another interesting fact about these fancy felines is that they&rsquo;re sterile. The only way you can adopt one is through the laboratory when they&rsquo;re bred. Their price doesn&rsquo;t come as a surprise now, does it?

With their strong body and beautiful spotted coat, Bengals are believed to be descendants of wild Asian leopards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These wonderful fluffs are intelligent and VERY active. Although they&rsquo;re fun to have around, living with them has its challenges. If you decide to get one, be prepared to catch her scratching your furniture and knocking things down just because the diva feels like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have a fish tank, you might want to consider putting a lid on it if you decide to adopt this leopard fluff. She&rsquo;ll probably find your fish interesting, and she won&rsquo;t mind getting inside of it to catch a few because Bengals love water.

In fact, Ocicats have no wild genes at all!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this case, the looks are definitely deceiving, as these beautiful furballs are the closest thing you can get to a domesticated cat out of all designer cat breeds. Ocicats are a mix of Abyssinian, American Shorthair, and Siamese, and their personality has a little bit of each of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you share a home with other pets or children, this would be the purrfect feline buddy for all of you. Although vocal and curious, these beautiful felines are gentle, social, and easily trained. Since they don&rsquo;t like being left alone, they might want a lot of your attention, but we don&rsquo;t really see how that can be a bad thing&hellip;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5.

With their loving and social nature, Chausies make wonderful fur friends. They do need a lot of stimulation and company and don&rsquo;t lose a lot of the playfulness they have as kittens. Because of this, they would be a great addition to a family with other cats or dogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When allowed outside, Chausies tend to wander off, so it&rsquo;s best to keep them as indoor cats. They&rsquo;re loyal and affectionate and won&rsquo;t have any issues with people of all ages.

Out of all the designer cat breeds we&rsquo;ve mentioned so far, these special-looking kitties have the most out-of-this-world appearance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to their Munchkin ancestor, these hairless beauties have short legs that make them hard to resist. Even if you like your purrer fluffy! Because of their lack of hair, it&rsquo;s important to keep these dwarf-like kitties inside, because they&rsquo;re susceptible to cold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though they look like cute baby aliens, they&rsquo;re highly social and enjoy spending time with their families. They&rsquo;re affectionate and loyal, and will probably follow you everywhere simply for the sake of being around you. How cute is that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">8.

These beautiful fluffs are a result of a genetic mutation that happened in the 1960s. As hinted by their name, these adorable kitties have ears that naturally fold forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These wonderful furballs make a lovely addition to a home with other pets or children. They&rsquo;re gentle, sweet, and have a lot of patience. These little cuties are pretty nosey, too, so don&rsquo;t be surprised to see your feline bestie getting out of the room to see who you&rsquo;re having over.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unfortunately, the gene mutation that caused their ears to fold often leads to joint diseases. So, if you plan on getting this adorable fluff, keep in mind that she&rsquo;ll need regular vet checkups as she grows older.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">10.

With their large ears and long and slender bodies, these unique fluffs make it hard to look away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oriental Shorthair is a result of cross-breeding of Siamese cats and other short-haired felines to create new colors. As a result, we&rsquo;re now left with over 300 shades of this beautiful furbaby! How cool is that?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, although their appearance is unique, they&rsquo;re not the easiest cats to deal with. If you&rsquo;re thinking of adopting an Oriental Shorthair, keep in mind that these kitties hate being left alone for a long period of time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before your heart melts at the thought of your kitty wanting you close 24\/7, it&rsquo;s not all sunshine and rainbows. Yes, they like to have their humans around, but not solely for the company. These divas want you to meet their demands immediately. And, trust me, they&rsquo;ll make sure you do.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you decide on getting an Oriental Shorthair kitten, make sure you find a reputable breeder. These elegant fluffs suffer from progressive retinal atrophy, so it&rsquo;s important that health checks are carried out at the right time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">12.

These majestic felines are like purring chocolate cakes, and we absolutely love them for it! It&rsquo;s no surprise that some of their other names are Brownie and Chocolate Delight&hellip;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the 1950s, people have come up with the idea of crossing a Siamese cat with a black domestic shorthair. Their main goal was to create a kitty with the beautiful physical and personality characteristics of a Siamese, and a dark-colored coat. Well, the result of this cross-breeding was the beautiful Havana Brown!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to their curious and playful nature, and the fact that they love following their cat parents EVERYWHERE, these unique fluffs are often compared to puppies. A buddy shaped like a cat with the cheery personality of a pup? Say no more!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">15.
