Soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo’s favorite domestic cat, which cost at least $ 3,000, has been hit by a car outside his home in Italy as recently reported, and has already been sent to rehab with his girlfriend’s family in Spain.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Sphynx hairless cat, named Pepe, is believed to have taken the name of Ronaldo’s former teammate during his time at Real Madrid, and with the Portuguese national team.<\/p>\n
Ronaldo’s girlfriend, Georgina Rodriguez, 27, decided to take the cat to her home by private jet, to take care of her in Spain.<\/p>\n
The stuffed cat has been known before in the couple’s photos on Instagram, after it became part of the family two years ago.<\/p>\n
She has accompanied the family on some luxury vacations and the 36-year-old Juventus striker has posted some videos playing with her.<\/p>\n
As for Ms. Rodriguez, last year she spread rumors about a possible pregnancy when she posted some photos with the cat tucked under her blouse as Ronaldo kissed her as if she were a bloated baby.<\/p>\n
Rodriguez was the one who announced the accident in an interview with the Spanish magazine Instyle: \u201cPepe caused us a horror. He had left home and was hit by a car. He was near death and remained in intensive veterinary care for a month and a half. “My sister Ivana is taking care of him and he is already recovering.”<\/p>\n
Rodriguez introduced the family’s new pet to its 23 million fans on Instagram in November 2018 with a photo of him holding it in his lap: ‘Pepe wishes you a good day.’<\/p>\n
Sphynx cats are expensive as they are purebred and difficult to find. Although their name sounds like Egyptian, they originated in Canada, where in the 1960s a hairless mutant kitten named Prune was born, from a herd of normal cats.<\/p>\n
But critics say these cats have alien appearance and do not even deserve to be called such.<\/p>\n
