**LOS ANGELES** — Taylor Swift has taken formal steps to safeguard the names of her three cats, filing trademarks for Meredith, Olivia, and Benjamin Swift, according to reports from Billboard.

The move, which officially registers the cats’ names under Swift’s intellectual property protection, highlights the singer’s deep attachment to her pets, who frequently appear in her social media posts and have become beloved figures among her fans, known as Swifties.

Meredith Grey (named after the *Grey’s Anatomy* character), Olivia Benson (inspired by *Law & Order: SVU*), and Benjamin Button have long been part of Swift’s public persona. The cats have joined her on tours, starred in music video cameos, and even inspired fan merchandise and social media content.

A representative for Swift did not immediately comment on the trademark filings, but industry experts note that such protections are common for high-profile celebrities to prevent unauthorized commercial use of personal brands or assets.

The filing comes amid Swift’s continued dominance in the music industry, following the record-breaking success of her *Eras Tour* and multiple Grammy-winning albums.

Fans have reacted with amusement and affection online, with many praising Swift for looking out for her “fur babies” in true protective mom fashion.
