Taylor Swift is a huge fan of cats and though some people think she has dozens, she only has three. For many years, Taylor had two cats — Olivia Benson and Meredith Grey. While filming the music video for Me! with Brendon Urie, she met Benjamin, a cat who would be in the video. Taylor fell in love with the little fellow and adopted him. Now, she has Benjamin, Meredith, and Olivia and frequently shared photos of her cats on her social media pages, including her official Instagram account where she has 134.5 million followers.

Taylor shared a sweet picture of herself holding two kittens and it was clear she was tempted to take them home. Taylor looked beautiful with her blonde hair pulled back in a ponytail. She held one kitten in each hand and smiled at them lovingly. You may see the photo and the caption that Taylor Swift shared below.

Ya could I get these to go?

Taylor named her cat Olivia Benson after Mariska Hargitay’s character on Law & Order: SVU. Taylor is a huge fan of Mariska’s and the show. Many people have remarked that Taylor’s cats are some of the most pampered in the world. You can see Olivia Benson sitting up and looking at the camera for her picture below.

Taylor Swift even shared a photo of herself with a Sphynx cat as a promotion for her movie Cats. The movie didn’t do very well in theaters but at least Taylor got to pose with a really cool cat!

Taylor always finds a reason to post a photo or video of a cat —including when she has new music out.

When in doubt, ask the itty bitty pretty kitty committee. When they shun you with silence, ambivalence, and judgmental brush offs… just put the song out anyway. NEW XMAS SONG AND VIDEO (made from home videos 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦) OUT TONIGHT #ChristmasTreeFarm 🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲🎄🌲

Taylor even shared a photo of Meredith Grey to promote self-quarantining during the Coronavirus pandemic.

Taylor doesn’t need a holiday to have a reason to celebrate or hug her cats, but on National Cat Day, she made sure to remind everyone to show their cat love.

Hug your cat today. Or don’t, if your cat hates hugs. But anyway. Happy #NationalCatDay from me, Olivia, Meredith, and Benjamin. 😸😸😸👱🏻‍♀️
