In general, people don’t consider cats to be expensive pets. Horses, exotic animals, or even pedigree dogs of particular breeds are typically thought of when most people seem to imagine expensive pets. You can definitely add a cat to your home for $150 or less if you visit your local animal shelter and adopt one.

Though not all cats are that affordable. In fact, the cost of certain cats is absolutely ridiculous. Could you picture paying $6,000 for a cat? Apparently, some of these kittens cost more than a modest home. The breeds listed below are the most costly cats in the world, ranging in price from reasonably expensive to insanely overpriced.
