"His off-camera name is Lotus," Sarah wrote in her post. The cat was officially adopted by the Parker-Broderick Family in April. He was originally rescued by the Connecticut Humane Society with his siblings, who were also given botanical names.

Sarah cheekily ended her post by writing, "If he looks familiar, that's because he is."

What are the names of Sarah Jessica Parker's cats?

After Parker officially adopted Lotus, he joined family cats Rémy and Smila, adopted in May 2022.

Now the 58-year-old actor has three cats to go with the three children she shares with fellow actor Matthew Broderick (61). The two have been married since 1997.

Per the Instagram pics, the newest feline addition to the famous family is fitting right in.
