The Instagram pets that become profitable businesses


Pets with popular Instagram accounts are commanding huge fees to appear at events, according to reports.

Celebrities, including pets, can make $2,000 and more once they have broken the 100,000 follower mark.

Those with between 150,000 and 200,000 followers can ask for more than $3,000, according to Create&Cultivate, an online platform.

The most popular Instagram pets have much higher followings.

Managing followers can become such a busy job that some owners decide to quit their daily job to concentrate full-time on their pet.

Jiff the Pomeranian has more than 2 million followers on Instagram. He is also considered a ‘public figure’ on Facebook with more than 1 million likes on his page.
