NOT saying that you are comparing cats to purses...but as someone with a $1000 cat I can tell you that I did not buy him (primarily) for other people's response to him.
I bought him because I did a ton of research and he was the most suitable cat for me. The smallest domestic breed, VERY social and friendly. Sleeps under the covers and "helps" in every activity. I view a pet as a member of my family...and a worthwhile investment. I hope he lives to be a ripe old age and I am willing to make an investment to ensure a desirable temperament. There are also people who don't buy expensive purses for their status, but rather for the unsurpassed quality of the workmanship and their sheer artistry. |

It's just like spending $1000 for a purse. You're not buying the purse because it's worth $1000, you're buying the purse so that other people know you have $1000 to spend on a purse.
(I swear, if anyone goes and says that now I'm comparing a cat to a purse, I just might shoot them.) |

I do not spend money on a purse to let others know I have the money to spend. In fact, I'm the opposite. I stay away from logos and monograms. I buy my bags based on quality, how long they will last me, the craftsmanship, how it feels, etc...
It's like how I don't spend $100s on jeans just because people will know it's $$, I do it because the fit better, the washes are nicer, they do not stretch out as much, and so on. Just my 2 cents |
