The total cost of the procedure came to a staggering 1,000 Australian dollars – a sum that translates to approximately Rs 56,000 or around 1,85,000 Pakistani Rupees.

Pakistan’s cricket legend, Wasim Akram, is making headlines for a rather unusual reason. The former fast bowler, currently in Australia for commentary duties during the ongoing ODI series between Pakistan and Australia, shared a jaw-dropping story about a hefty expense he incurred for his cat’s haircut. The bill for the grooming session was so high, it could have easily bought a new iPhone!
Akram recounted the bizarre experience during a live commentary session, leaving his fellow commentators in disbelief. The total cost of the procedure came to a staggering 1,000 Australian dollars – a sum that translates to approximately Rs 56,000 or around 1,85,000 Pakistani Rupees. To put things into perspective, this is enough money to purchase a brand-new iPhone, depending on the model.
The veteran cricketer seemed genuinely taken aback by the bill, which was far beyond what he had expected for a simple cat haircut. Akram shared that the grooming session involved a series of medical procedures, including anesthesia and a post-procedure care package. He jokingly added, “With this kind of money, you could probably get 200 cats groomed in Pakistan!”
According to the breakdown Akram provided during the broadcast, the charges included:
- 105 AUD for a medical check-up.
- 305 AUD for anesthesia to safely sedate the cat.
- 40 AUD for the actual haircut.
- 120 AUD for post-procedure care.
- 251 AUD for a cardio test.
Akram’s lighthearted comments, coupled with the hefty price tag, were a source of amusement and shock for listeners and fellow commentators alike. His recounting of the incident highlighted just how costly pet care can be in certain parts of the world, even for something as seemingly routine as a haircut.
This unexpected financial outlay for his cat’s grooming session sparked a lot of conversation on social media, with fans and pet owners alike weighing in on the staggering cost of pet care in Australia.
