Musicians Who Are Cat Lovers: Taylor Swift, Ed Sheeran & More

Every year on Oct. 29, the United States celebrates National Cat Day — but most cat owners are happy to honor their kitties any day, no matter what part of the world they’re in.

That goes for A-list musicians, too. Some of the biggest names in pop, country and hip-hop have sassy, cuddly, playful, pointy-eared companions waiting for them at home each day, from Katy Perry to Doja Cat, Adele, Kesha and more. And then there’s Taylor Swift, who’s so obsessed with her felines, she’s incorporated them into her music multiple times — singing “guess I’ll just stumble on home to my cats” on “Gorgeous,” and “Karma is a cat, purring in my lap ’cause it loves me” on “Karma.”

A lot of stars also make their own social media accounts for their pets, allowing followers to nurture fandom not just for them, but for their animals, too. Justin Bieber’s kitties have a following of nearly 300,000 on Instagram, for example, while Ed Sheeran’s cats are close behind in numbers.

And just like non-famous humans, many musicians have their own favorite breeds of cats. Swift is known for her love of Scottish Folds, while Bieber paid a pretty penny ($35,000!) in 2019 for a pair of spotted Bengals. Other singers are content with more common types of felines, such as Black cats and Tabbies.

No matter the breed or amount of followers, though, the cats featured on this list are loved through and through by their famous owners. Keep reading to see which musicians are certified cat lovers, from Adele to Sabrina Carpenter, below.
