Alia Bhatt is crazy about cats and kittens. The star and her sister Shaheen already have two cats, Sheeba and Pikka, and on Bhatt’s 24th birthday, their family grew by one more when she gifted herself a third kitten, Edward Bhatt. From then till now, Alia’s every other Instagram post shows off the little ball of fur. While sometimes we really wonder how the actress finds time for the cat from her busy schedule, Alia ensures she spends considerable time with all the cutie-pies. And by looking at Alia’s recent Instagram images, we are sure Alia and Edward cannot be kept apart. (Also read: Bollywood celebs who have rocked the off-shoulder trend!)

With those long whiskers and snow-like fur, Alia’s cat, Edward is seriously super endearing . If you follow Alia on Instagram, you’ve already seen her Edward album featuring the duo’s most special, quiet times together. All those sleepy selfies (Snapchat filters included!), a photograph of Edward hiding in the bookshelf captioned “My son”, and a particularly sweet snapshot of little Edward keeping a sick Bhatt company while she ate pumpkin soup. Oh my gosh, this is so sweet!
