1. Taylor Swift

It's no secret that Taylor's a major cat lady celebrity. She has kitties including Meredith Grey, Olivia Benson, and Benjamin Button (named after her favorite pop culture characters), and they travel everywhere with her!

Taylor is just one of many famous cat ladies who show how rewarding pet parenthood can be, setting a trend for celebrities that have cats worldwide.

2. Katy Perry

Katy Perry loves cats so much that she famously named her beloved feline Kitty Purry. Clever, right? "I am obsessed with cats. I'm kind of trying to make that cat-lady personality cool," she once shared. "Cats are like, 'You have to earn my affection.' And I really associate myself with that. People have to earn my affection, but when I give it, it's going to be good." That's an awesome perspective on bond and loyalty, much like her pop star peer Taylor Swift.

3. Kristen Stewart

Twilight star Kristen Stewart has admitted to being completely obsessed with her cat, nicknamed Jella. She opened up during an interview featured in People magazine, saying, "I'm going to be a crazy cat lady one day, I'm sure." There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, Kristen! Embracing your love for pets is something all cat lovers appreciate.

4. Jenna Fischer

The Office star Jenna Fischer covered Natural Cat magazine back in 2009. That is how you know you are a true cat lady celebrity! The publication detailed how Jenna Fischer's cat journey began as she rose to Hollywood stardom with her rescue cat in tow. The relationship between Jenna Fischer, People magazine coverage, and cat advocacy has inspired countless rescue animal adopters over the years.

5. Mandy Moore

Mandy Moore is definitely a passionate cat advocate. She has owned multiple rescue cats and even voiced a cat character on Disney Junior's Sheriff Callie's Wild West.

6. Evan Rachel Wood

Evan Rachel Wood usually takes her cat with her when traveling because she hates being apart from him. However, airplane travel with pets can sometimes lead to funny moments! "I put him in the bag on the plane, and then I fall asleep, and then I always get woken up by a flight attendant with my cat in their arms, looking at me because he's gotten out and is running through the aisles," she recalled. "He's the worst traveler ever. I have to leave him at home now." Poor kitty! But he surely enjoys relaxing comfortably at home instead, as noted by fellow cat enthusiast Jenna Fischer.

7. Nicole Richie

The self-proclaimed "huge pet person" actually attracted an entire pack of strays once! Tabby (Tabitha Jones Madden) started hanging around her house, and Nicole couldn't resist taking her in. The only hilarious downside? Tabby started bringing around the whole neighborhood! "I think cats have big mouths," Richie joked. "She spread the word and then came back with a black cat and an orange cat. I was like, 'Oh, no, no, no – this isn't happening!' So then I stopped feeding them all, and then she started coming back alone."

Well, there you have it! These are just a few of the many female celebrities with cats who are proud cat ladies. From Hollywood sets to cozy homes, famous cat ladies continue to show us how wonderful feline companionship can be. Can you think of anyone else to add to the list?
