Saying goodbye. Katy Perry‘s cat Kitty Purry has died 15 years after the singer found the stray animal.
“Kitty Purry crawled through my then-boyfriend’s window 15 years ago, fully pregnant and seeking shelter,” the “Firework” singer, 35, captioned a throwback photo of herself holding the cat via Instagram on Sunday, April 19. “Two litters and many moons later, this street cat became a lovable mascot to many. Sadly, Kitty completed her 9th life last night. I hope she rests in salmon fillets and tuna tartare way up in catnip heaven. Kitty, thanks for the cuddles and companionship along the way. Big thanks to my brother David and @garethwalters for being great co-parents. #kittypurryforever.” Perry — who also owns another cat, Monkey — featured Kitty Purry in her 2009 music video “I Kissed a Girl.” The songstress even named one of her Katy Kat Cover Girl lipsticks after the feline.
