Rare Cat Breeds: Cat Breeds You Purr-obably Haven’t Seen Yet<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Rare cat breeds are much sought after. If you’re a certified cat person, you certainly will look forward to meeting these furry, furry fine felines, if not owning one. Based on the Cat Fancier’s Association 2017 rankings, these are the rarest cat breeds in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Drum roll, please!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Havana Brown Cat<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"rare<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This svelte Havana Brown<\/a> looks like a meow-del straight out of Vanity Fur and is paw-sibly the only cat breed that has brown whiskers. We heard from the grapevine that the Havana Brown cats are the love babies of Siamese and Black Domestic Shorthairs. We’re shookt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Burmilla<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"rare<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It must be tiresome to look this purr-fect. The Burmilla<\/a>, a beautiful fancy lap cat, is the offspring of an accidental breeding between a Chincilla and a Burmese cat. The story of these star-crossed lovers will be told another time, but they will be glad to know the Burmilla lineage is one of the rarest and most sought-after cat breeds in history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. LaPerm<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"rare<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If Pawllywood decides on a Grease remake, this curly catto will definitely take center stage. The LaPerm<\/a> sports a permed coat from tail to whiskers and is known to be very cathletic, thanks to its significant contribution to everyday farm life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Turkish Van<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"rare<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

We still can’t explain how the Turkish Van<\/a> manages to look perennially purr-plexed, but other than being the rarest, the Turkish Van is also said to be one of the oldest cat breeds. It is so old that historians say it was most likely to have been on Noah’s Ark and hopped off Mount Ararat. We are so not kitten you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. American Wirehair<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n
\"rare<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

If you’re looking for a loyal and intelligent furr-iend, consider getting an American Wirehair<\/a>. It may cost you a pretty penny, but this prized feline will sure be worth it. With their crimpy hair and sensitive skin, you defo be spending heaps of girl time at the spa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
