Taylor Swift’s cat Olivia Benson is worth $97M, among the world’s richest pets
According to a recent study conducted by All About Cats, Taylor Swift’s beloved glamourpuss, a Scottish fold named Olivia Benson, is the third-richest pet in the world. The obese cat is said to be worth $97 million, which is positively remarkable. Social media influencer Nala cat, a Siamese and tabby mix, is the second-highest-paid cat in the world, with an estimated $100 million. Italian media conglomerate Gunther Corporation’s German Shepherd Gunther VI has become the world’s wealthiest pet thanks to his owner’s staggering $500 million endowment. Instagram data and the estimated earnings per social media post were used to compile the list.
In 2020, Swift shared an Instagram photo of Olivia lounging on a couch, which quickly went viral and received over 2 million likes. The star of “Midnights,” whose album is titled after a character played by Mariska Hargitay on “Law & Order: Special Victims Unit,” has made no secret of her affection for her cat, named after Hargitay’s TV character. Blank Space” and “Me!” music videos, as well as other commercials (including a 2014 Diet Coke ad), have featured her fluffy cat.
After Benson on the list of wealthiest pets are Oprah Winfrey’s dogs Sadie, Sunny, Lauren, Layla, and Luke (with $30 million), the Pomeranian Jiffpom (with $25 million), the cat Choupette (with $13 million) belonging to the late Karl Lagerfeld, and the dog Pontiac (with $5 million) belonging to the late actress Betty White. Swift also has a cat named Benjamin Button, after Brad Pitt’s character in “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” which was released in 2008. Button the cat is a ragdoll. He was cut from the final roster.
