What cat cost $10,000?

I must ask, in all seriousness, what kind of feline would command such an exorbitant price of ten thousand dollars? Is this a rare breed, perhaps an exotic feline from a distant land? Or could it be that the cat in question possesses some extraordinary quality or talent that sets it apart from its less fortunate peers? I find it difficult to fathom the value that could be attributed to a mere cat to reach such a staggering figure. Surely, there must be more to this story than meets the eye.
