Naturally, owning a cat involves costs for upkeep, food, toys, and veterinary care.
But for a variety of reasons, some of the most adorable cat breeds are just more expensive than others.
Large cat breeds are among the priciest cat breeds,
yet many people adore the charming, loving, and affectionate cat breeds.
According to Charlotte Reed, a former cat show handler and pet-talk host of The Pet Buzz radio
show and podcast, "some cat lovers prefer to spend the big bucks on a purebred cat because
they're attracted to the physical characteristics of a cat, like the beauty of the cat's coat or unique fur pattern."
