Not a new Ferrari, or a hot-shot EV founder or a swimsuit model. It is this adorable cat that draws crowds of admirers at Chinese auto shows. And, she earns way more than human influencers.


Not all cats eat, sleep, and purr all day. Some also make money by posing for the camera! Don’t believe us? Meet such Mao Mao – a cute feline who works as a professional car model. The two-year-old British Shorthair from Chongqing, China, is known to earn anywhere between $775 – $1,550 per appearance and is raging her way to the top in the auto world!

Mao Mao’s foray into the glamour world, however, was accidental. Her owner – Zheng, who happens to work in the automotive industry, casually put her on one of his cars during an auto show back in the day. This attracted a string of onlookers who then requested to pose with the feline for the gram.
