Taylor Swift’s reaction to being named Time Magazine’sPerson of the Year was a bit catty ― in the best way possible.

On Tuesday, the singer responded to the announcement by tweeting an imaginary conversation between her and the publication alongside the cover photo:

“Time Magazine: We’d like to name you Person of the Yea-”

“Me: Can I bring my cat.”

As you can see from her post below, the cover photo featured Swift with one of her three cats, Benjamin Button, whom she adopted in 2019.

As you might expect, many Swifties thought the photo was purr-fect.

and THIS is why I love her 😭 is named person of the year (and lots of other big things) and her response is to joke about her cat. she’s just remained so humble and down to earth, it’s incredible. https://t.co/li44f7ZCu7

Today at the weekly spouse gathering, one of the ice breaker questions was “If you could be any animal, what would you be?”

My answer was a cat adopted by a rich young woman and a friend asked, “like Taylor Swift’s cats?”

And yes, EXACTLY like Taylor Swift’s cats. https://t.co/dcCBda2CWM

Taylor doesn't put Benji in the basement. She's not afraid of his shine. she lets him bejeweled. https://t.co/yW6IMjqSuN

Plot twist: The honor was intended for Benjamin and he asked Time Magazine if he could bring you.

(Seriously, though: Congrats on this well-deserved honor. You’ve been my Person of the Year and it’s nice to see others recognize you, too 😉)

Several people even tried to emulate the photo ― with varying results.

Others wondered how Taylor’s other cats, Olivia Benson and Meredith Grey, might react to Benjamin’s higher profile.

One person even suggested reigniting an old rumor about why Meredith was missing in action.
