Each one of them is independent, willful, loving, and playful. All in all, purrfect just the way she is. And most importantly, a human&rsquo;s ideal life companion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Some people have no preferences. They are content with the moggie feline they have rescued from the streets or the shelter and don&rsquo;t mind her nonpedigree origins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are some people who have their eyes on one particular cat breed and are willing to spend a fortune to have her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is not an exaggeration, though. Some cats do actually cost a fortune. But in my opinion, if someone truly wants that particular feline and they can afford to get her and fulfill her needs, then they should totally go for it! Because to have a special fluffy friend is sometimes worth breaking the bank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&rsquo;s see what are the top 7 most expensive cat breeds in the world today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1.

This breed has a beautiful short-haired, white coat, after which she was named (Khao Manee literally translates to <em>&ldquo;white gem&rdquo;<\/em>).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This breed is highly intelligent and curious, with a tendency to be a little naughty. She&rsquo;s also very devoted to her owner and loves to both play and cuddle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her most prominent features are her eyes which can be blue or gold, and sometimes they even come in a combination of these two colors. That&rsquo;s why she&rsquo;s also known as a <em>&ldquo;Diamond Eye cat&rdquo;<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Her special features and the fact that she&rsquo;s very rare makes this cat one of the most expensive cat breeds in the world.

This characteristic resulted in some authorities prohibiting her. For example, it&rsquo;s forbidden to own a Bengal cat in New York or Hawaii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A true Bengal cat cannot be more than 4 generations away from her wild relatives. That&rsquo;s what makes her so expensive that she costs around $25,000. But, the more reasonable and average price is $10,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.

This breed is truly something. She&rsquo;s playful, curious, intelligent, pretty rare today, and very much feral by nature. She was created by crossing a wild African Serval and a domestic cat and is considered to be pretty much a wild cat herself.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Because of this, a Savannah cat is forbidden from owning in more than 10 US states, even though she&rsquo;s been raised in a domestic environment for more than 100 years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She doesn&rsquo;t eat regular cat food and prefers a raw diet. She also dislikes strangers and never uses a litter box, so people who decide to get her must be well prepared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All of these reasons make her one of the most expensive cat breeds in the world today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7.

This is, by far, the wildest cat breed among domesticated cat breeds in the world! She was created by breeding several wild cats, like African serval and Asian leopard with a domestic cat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This feline is tall and exotic looking, and although she has a pretty wild background, she is generally very calm, quiet, and relaxed. She loves to be the center of attention but also doesn&rsquo;t mind being left alone for several hours. She is also very friendly and affectionate towards her owner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This cat is a kind of status symbol, and therefore it is not surprising that it is the most expensive cat breed today. Depending on the fact whether she&rsquo;s a show-quality cat or just a pet, the prices vary from $22,000 to $125,000. Either way, this breed costs a pretty penny.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>All cats of this world, regardless of breed, are known for their unique personalities.
