“Choupette is a rich girl,” he had once said on a TV show hinting that he has written her into his will. “She has her own fortune,” he had added. She had earned at least three million euros ($3.4 million) with him by doing adverts for a German car firm and a Japanese cosmetics brand.

“If anything happens the person who looks after her will not go without,” Karl Lagerfeld who also designed for Fendi had said before his death.

Just in case you didn’t know, Choupette has 175,000 followers on social media. Unlike other cats, she eats at a table. “She is like a human being, only with an extra quality - silence,” Lagerfeld had quipped.

“Choupette is the centre of my world,” he had once admitted. She has never done advertisements for cat food. Why? Because “She is too sophisticated for that,” he had said.

The pampered eight-year-old cat was “kidnapped” by Karl Lagerfeld in 2011 from his young friend and male model Baptiste Giabiconi. She could just be about to inherit a slice of his estimated $200-million (176-million-euro) fortune.
