In February 1998, an F2 Bengal cat
named Cato made the Guinness World
Records by being the most expensive cat
purchased. It was bought for $41,435.00
(USD) by Cindy Jackson of London,
England (Jackson herself also a record
holder for having had the most cosmetic
procedures).
The Bengal cat was sold by breeder Lord
C. Esmond Gay of Bedfordshire,
England.
Note however, that as of 2005, this
Bengal cat is no longer the world
record holder.
