The mum, who shares daughter Lily Mo, 25, with ex Michael Sheen, gave fans a closer look at the newly adopted cat in more photos from the Instagram carousel. In one, the family pet can be seen with dyed pink fur and sporting a salmon and blue sweater. The holiday-themed post also showed a close-up of Beckinsale’s beloved Pomeranian, Myf.

The Total Recall the star was seen balancing a cat on her back as she lay down on the floor and reached behind herself to grab onto her own legs, turning her body into a bit of a basket.
