6 Pets That Are Probably Richer Than You Article By Levis Ryan

Some animals have earned more money than most humans could ever dream of. It might be hard to accept that a pet earns more than you do, but unless you’re super wealthy, it’s true. Here are 6 pets that have broken bank from their internet fame, modeling gigs, TV jobs and inheritance from their owners.

1. Gunther IV When Countess Karlotta Libenstein of Germany died in 1991, she left her entire $81 million fortune to her pet German Shepherd Gunther III. Trustees of her estate have however done a good job of increasing its net worth to about $375 million now inherited by the next dog in line, Gunther IV. Gunther IV owns villas in Italy and the Bahamas and purchased Madonna’s Miami beach home for $7.5 million in 2002.

2. Grumpy Cat Arguably the most famous animal on the internet, Grumpy cat earned her fame when her owner posted her picture on a reddit forum, which in turn went viral due to her Grumpy face. This fame netted the cat her own personal coffee brand, a Christmas movie and over 1.6 million Instagram followers. Her net worth has been estimated at $100 million but her owner says it’s ‘a little exaggerated’.

3. Boo Boo is not only a cute dog with a great haircut, he has gotten a ton of gigs most of us can only dream of. Dubbed ‘the world’s cutest dog’ he’s the spokesdog for Virgin America airlines, has his own verified social media pages and got his own book that’s been printed in 11 languages after getting more than 5 million followers. Boo earns $1 million a year and has 17.5 million Facebook followers.

4. Conchita The Chihuahua known as Conchita was dubbed the ‘most pampered dog in the world’ even before her owner, Miami socialite Gail Posner, passed away in 2010. She left her dog a fortune that included a $3 million trust fund and an $8.3 million mansion on Miami Beach. Conchita wore pearls, designer bikinis, Cartier necklaces, and Louis Vuitton bags. She was also a regular at Miami nightclubs.

5. Gigoo When some of us think chicken, we hardly think of them as pets. Well British publishing giant Miles Blackwell saw this differently. Miles sold his share to the family empire and retired later in his life to raise sheep and chicken. When he died in 2001, he gave most of his fortune to charity and left roughly $15 million to his beloved hen Gigoo.

6. Choupette Fashion icon Karl Lagerfeld has described his pet cat Choupette as ‘the most famous cat in the world.’ Well that’s arguable seeing as we already have Grumpy Cat on the list. According to the designer, Choupette hates other animals, children and stays by his side at all times. She also has two personal maids to cater to her every need. Choupette reportedly earned $3.3 million in 2014 for two modeling gigs she did, one for cars in Germany, the other for a Japanese beauty product.
