Taylor Swift is one of the most popular celebrities and successful musicians in the world, and her cat, Olivia Benson, isn’t doing too bad for herself either. In fact, she’s doing purrfectly well.
According to a new report from All About Cats, TSwift’s Scottish Fold cat, who is named after Mariska Hargitay’s “Law & Order: SVU” character, is worth $97 million, making the feline the third-richest pet in the world, which is pretty pawsome.
Per All About Cats, Olivia “earned her fortune starring alongside her owner in several music videos, has crafted her own merchandise line, and has had cameos in many big-budget ads, including for the likes of Diet Coke and Ned Sneakers.”
Taylor got Olivia in 2014. She is the Grammy winner’s second cat and is the youngest “sister” to Meredith Grey, another Scottish Fold. Taylor’s third cat is a Ragdoll named Benjamin Button, who was born in 2019. All of the adorable felines have made appearances on her social media profiles.
However, when she was just a cat mom of two, the “Anti-Hero” singer spoke about the term “cat lady” while appearing on “Live with Kelly and Michael” back in 2014.
“Before I got the second cat, I was kind of canvassing everyone I knew, going, ‘Is cats, cat lady?’” Taylor said at the time. “Two cats is cats, and there’s more than one. But they’re like, ‘No, three cats is a cat lady, two cats is a party.’”
In 2021, the “Bejeweled” singer shared a TikTok that featured a clip from the talk show appearance on TikTok, before it then hilariously cut to her dancing with Olivia and Meredith.
