Cat Tuesday - Dec. 11, 2007



The picture above is of an Ashera, a "designer cat" selling for about $22,000. This cat is a mix between an African Serval, a Asian Leopard and a regular domesticated cat. A hypoalergenic version is available for just $6,000 more.

Cats like the Ashera, the Toyger (a mix between a Bengal Tiger and a domesticated cat), and the Savannah (a mix between the Serval and a domesticated cat) are all a part of a new line of designer cats being marketed by a California bio-tech company. They are described as exotic but extremely friendly...more like a dog than an ordinary house cat. They even walk on a leash.

Now apart from all the creepy breeding going on here I think that Ashera looks awesome. Nothing against Maude or anything but can you imagine taking that thing on a walk through your neighborhood? And what about that Toyger?
