We don’t normally review animals, but this is such a unique story that I felt compelled to write about it. In 1998 a lady from London coughed up £23,320 for a mog. OK… so it’s a little more than a moggie, but it’s still only a cat.

It’s a second-generation Bengal cat bred by Lord C. Esmond Gay. They are not normally anywhere near this price, so it’s a mystery why it went for so much. They normally sell for around £2000, still quite a lot for a cat. The cat itself is a hybrid of a wild Asian leopard cat bred with a domestic one, and surprisingly is not recognized by The Cat fancier’s Association as a pedigree.
