text: With two personal maids and travel by private jet, Choupette is by far the world's most pampered pet. And, it now appears the three-year-old cat belonging to Karl Lagerfeld is also the richest. The fashion designer has revealed his white Siamese earned £2.18million last year - that's just£220,000 less than Cara Delevingne, one of the world's top models, who took home £2.4million. Scroll down for video . Karl Lagerfeld, 82, with three-year-old Siamese Choupette, who has earned £2million from TV appearances . Last year Choupette earned nearly as much as Cara Delevingne, despite only doing two jobs . And while Choupette raked in his cash by appearing in just two adverts, Cara had to work a lot harder, starring in multiple campaigns, walking tens of catwalks (including Lagerfeld's Chanel shows) and endorsing products. Lagerfeld, 82, said his cat was picked to appear in a commercial for cars in Germany and beauty products in Japan. And while he was happy for her to star in the adverts for the luxury items, he said she was 'too sophisticated' to be used to advertise food for other cats. 'Choupette became the most famous cat in the world, and the richest,' said Lagerfeld, the head designer for fashion house Chanel. 'She did two jobs and made three million euros last year. One was for cars in Germany and the other was for a Japanese beauty product. Choupette in her Corsa car adverts for the new range in 2014 in Berlin. The cat has her own Twitter account . 'I don't allow her to do foodstuffs and things like this. She's too sophisticated for that. She had something unique' Choupette, who has her own Twitter and Instagram accounts, appeared in an advert for Opel cars helping to promote the new Corsa range in 2014. She followed in the footsteps of supermodels Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell who previously helped promote the cars. The cat has even been a cover girl for a magazine and recently, while staying in New York, had her own £400 a night room at the Mercer hotel . Lagerfeld shot the adverts for the Japanese company She Uemura with his pet becoming the first cat to front a beauty campaign. The German-born designer raised eyebrows two years ago when he said he was so in love with his feline friend that he wanted to marry her. He revealed the glamour puss ate dinner with him at a table in the Paris mansion they shared and had weekly manicures for her claws. Lagerfeld doted on Choupette so much he described her as a 'kept woman'. His affection for his furry friend hasn't waned. 'She stays always with me and she has two personal maids, he said. 'They play with her, they have to take care of her beautiful white hair, the beauty treatments for her eyes, and they entertain her. She is the centre of the world.' While in New York recently to present his latest collection Choupette had her own room at the £400 a night Mercer hotel. Lagerfeld said he has become a recluse, rarely going out because he doesn't want to be photographed by other people and end up in their 'selfies'. His pet cat is his only companion. 'She is like a human being, but the good thing is that she's silent,' he told New York magazine. 'You don't have to discuss it. She hates other animals and she hates children. She stays always with me and she has two personal maids. 'They play with her, they have to take care of her beautiful white hair, the beauty treatments for her eyes, and they entertain her. She is the centre of the world. Karl Lagerfeld at the opening of the exhibition of his photos 'Corsa Karl and Choupette' at the Palazzo Italia . The 82-year-old fashion designer raised eyebrows recently when he said he was so in love with his feline friend he wanted to marry her. He also revealed that she has weekly manicures for her claws . 'If you saw her, you would understand. She is kind of Greta Garbo. There is something unforgettable about her, the way she moves, the way she plays. 'She's an inspiration for elegance. For attitude.' Asked if having Choupette had changed him, Lagerfeld said:'Maybe I became a better person perhaps, I don't know. 'Less selfish, I guess? I think it's grotesque, but what can you do? I believe in the unique. This is not just something to keep me company. It's only great because of the uniqueness of her.' And Lagerfeld's own life is as gilded and bizarre as his cats. He has a butler who wears a white coat and tie and travels ahead of him, greeting him with a chilled wine glass of Diet Coke. In an interview with Harper's Bazaar he once revealed that he has to sleep for seven hours a day, every day. Lagerfeld stands next to a drawing of his Birman cat at the vernissage for his photo calender 'Corsa Karl and Choupette' at the Palazzo Italia in Berlin . Choupette even has her own Instagram which posts adorable pictures of the cat . He follows a strict diet which starts with two protein shakes and steamed apples and he refuses to drink hot drinks. Lagerfeld famously lost six and a half stone saying that he did so so that he could, 'be a good clothes horse.' His hair, which he has pulled back into a pony-tail every day, is not actually the white hue it seems, in fact he has previously admitted that he sprays it every day with masses of dry shampoo to achieve the colour.

Last year for his SS15 Womenswear show Karl used his models to create a feminist protest . When he's not designing he spends much of his time flying around the world in private jets, accompanied by gorgeous male models. He creates his famous designs at home and says he rarely likes to go out because he hates people taking pictures of him. He told TheCut: 'I don’t go to movie theaters because I don’t want to be photographed by strangers. 'People bother me wherever I go. I like to imagine the world my way. I don’t want second-rate images of the world.'
