Leopards on must-have pets list

If you like your pets on the wild side, how about owning one of these? It’s called an Ashera and it’s a mixture of exotic creatures the Asian Leopard cat and the African Surval combined with a normal pet cat. At around 4-feet tall standing on its back legs, it’s bigger than the average cat and with a life span of about 25 years, it lives for longer too. The Ashera doesn’t come cheap, costing up to £13,000 — but there’s already a list of people wanting to get one!
