Mariah Carey and her new pets go together!
The “Fantasy” singer (54) adopted two kittens and shared the news on Xu with a sweet post.
Carey opened with a nod to her song “Can’t Let Go,” writing, “Summer’s gone on… even though I’m trying, I can’t let go!”
“Introducing the #DemKittens, new adopted family members: Nacho & Rocky Jr.,” she continued, adding a few cat emojis.
In the post, Carey included three photos of herself and her 12-year-old twins, Monroe and Moroccan — who she shares with ex Nick Cannon — and debuted her new furry “family members” in one of them.

In the video, Moroccan is holding one of the bright orange cats while his sister is holding the other with Carey. Both the twins and their famous mom are all smiles in the adorable family photo.
The photo was probably taken very shortly after the family adopted the cats, since one of their collars still said Sugar, not the new name (or Nacho or Rocky Jr.).
With a photo of a kitten, Butterfly the singer also shared two sweet mother-daughter photos with Monroe. In one, the duo, dressed in full-body swimsuits, smiled together in a pool as they floated on foam noodles. In another, Carey is in the middle of spreading sauce on a pizza while she and Monroe — still in suits — appear to customize personal pies.

Carey often features Monroe and Moroccan in videos she shares online. In July, the singer dressed up – and donned a denim outfit – to take a TikTok with the twins. The duo joined their mom to dance to her song “Touch My Body.”
At the beginning of the video, the glam team touched up Carey’s makeup and hair, and a few seconds later, Carey started singing the tune. Then Monroe appeared on the screen, followed shortly by her brother.

When the video hit the line, “I’m going to hunt you down,” the twins made comically scared faces as they danced with their mom.
“Why not? Jumping on the trend of my own song lol #touchmybody,” Carey captioned the TikTok.
However, the twins beat her to it, jumping on the bandwagon in early July with their dad. They danced to the song with Cannon, 42, in a video he shared on his personal TikTok account.
The Wild ‘N Out the host made sure to give Carey a nod. In the caption of his video, he wrote: “Just right!! Shout out to the mommy!!!! Empress queen of all queens!”
