Sarah Jessica Parker has revealed the new member of her family after adopting her furry And Just Like That co-star.
In the second series of the Sex and the City spin-off, viewers were introduced to adorable kitten Shoe, after Carrie Bradshaw rescued the feline.
Taking to Instagram, the actress explained that she had opened up her doors for the new addition after the cameras stopped rolling – and given him a new name.
Sharing a string of seriously adorable photos of the cat, she wrote: ‘His off-camera name is Lotus. He and his siblings were all given botanical names when they were rescued as newborns by the @cthumanesociety.
‘Adopted officially by the Parker/Broderick family in April 2023. He joins Remy and Smila who we adopted in May 2022.
‘If he looks familiar, that’s because he is. X, SJ.’
Fans and famous faces couldn’t get over the new addition to the household, sharing their love in the comments section.
Sex and the City co-star Kristin Davis penned: ‘Love home so much [sic].’
Katie Couric agreed: ‘He’s SO cute.’
A follower replied: ‘Lotus is perfection. Thank you for giving him a loving home!’
