Money the cat wears haute couture, has birthday bash at LV

There is a Persian cat in Malaysia that is probably better dressed than many of us.

Money has got to be the most pampered - if not the richest - cat in Malaysia.

For its seventh birthday, Money's pawrent Haliza Maysuri threw a birthday bash at a Louis Vuitton (LV) boutique in Kuala Lumpur last week.

On May 10, Ms Haliza, who co-owns the Muslim apparel brand Bawal Exclusive with her husband Mohd Rosli Awang, shared videos of Money's birthday celebrations on her TikTok account.

The day before, she shared a video of herself and her husband taking Money for its gown fitting at Butik Rizalman.

Rizalman Ibrahim, Malaysia's renowned haute couture designer, made for Money a grey gown embellished with Swarovski crystals.

Money is probably used to the lavish lifestyle.

There is a video on Ms Haliza's TikTok account showing Money in its bedroom, with a wardrobe of desginer clothes and a big portrait of the furry princess hanging on the wall.

The video was actually a rant by Ms Haliza, who was annoyed that people referred to Money as "just a cat".

At its LV birthday bash, Money was presented with custom-made gifts - a monogrammed, leather collar (RM3,000, or S$860) and reticule (RM17,000).

In 2021, when Money turned four, it received a gold necklace that cost RM26,000 from the pawrents.

When the couple bought a BMW last year, Ms Haliza said it was for Money. Perhaps this explains why Mr Rosli is dressed like a dapper chauffeur in videos where he drives the lucky cat around.
