Known worldwide for her chart-topping hits and love for different cat breeds, none other than Taylor Swift cherishes a group of three felines: Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benjamin Button. Similar to the stories behind her deeply personal songs, these cats have unique names and distinct personalities that intrigue fans. Consequently, many eager followers of Taylor Swift now seek more information about her beloved pets.
Let me share the tales behind the singer’s trio of feline friends – their backgrounds and connections.
What kinds of cat breeds does Taylor Swift have?
The pop sensation is a proud cat mother, whose three feline friends belong to different breeds.
As a dedicated Taylor Swift fan, I can’t help but share my love for her beloved feline companion, Meredith Grey – a captivating Scottish Fold cat who shares her name with the iconic character from Grey’s Anatomy. Just like Swift’s meteoric rise to global stardom, little Meredith has amassed quite a following of her own!
Keen-eyed Swifties have spotted Meredith and her sister Olivia Benson on Ryan Reynolds’ t-shirt in Deadpool 2, a testament to the bond between these beloved pets and their famous owner. Furthermore, Meredith graced our screens alongside Olivia in Taylor’s “Me!” music video, further solidifying her status as a celebrity cat.

In the meantime, Dancing with the Stars’ singer has another Scottish Fold named Olivia Benson as his second cat. This cat was given the name in honor of Mariska Hargitay’s character on Law & Order: SVU. Notably, Hargitay also acknowledged Taylor Swift’s fangirl moment by adopting a similar cat.
Actress Hargitay shared her cat named Karma on Instagram, a name inspired by Taylor Swift’s song “Karma” from her 2022 album Midnights. The lyrics go, “Karma is a cat purring in my lap ’cause it loves me.” In response to Hargitay’s post, Swift expressed delight, saying, “Oh my goodness! This feels incredibly serendipitous. I adore this so much!! (cat emoji)

Instead, let me rephrase that in a more conversational style: Taylor Swift got her third cat, Benjamin Button, in 2019. She adopted him from the set of her music video, “Me!”, where her other two cats were also hanging out. During an Instagram Live session with Brendon Urie from Panic! at the Disco, who collaborated with Taylor on the song, she shared the heartwarming story of how Benjamin joined their family.
Taylor Swift, a Grammy winner, shared that she found a homeless kitten who was adorably cute. According to her, she immediately felt a strong bond with Benjamin. The singer confessed that as soon as she held the cat, she knew he would be joining her family. In jest, she added, “I glanced at Brendon and he said, ‘You’re going to get the cat, aren’t you?'” (as reported by People)
