More often than not, we're guilty of treating our furry friends to more luxuries than their small pet brains can probably process. We buy them organic treats, adorn them in chic booties and matching faux-fur-lined jackets, construct fancy miniaturized palaces—and that's just the tip of the iceberg.
But while most pet owners do this happily for our four-legged best friends, there are whole online communities dedicated to showing off the wealthiest pets in the world—with owners among the rich and famous elite, keen to distribute their wealth to their most adored family members.
From pups jetting off to exotic locations on their parents' personal jets to a famous cat with more maids doting on her needs than her owner's, these are the pets living their absolute best lives. And for more adorable (and equally pampered) pets, meet the 20 Craziest Pets People Actually Own.
