Jenna Bush Hager's family is now one four-legged friend bigger!
The TODAY show anchor has welcomed another pet into her family, an adorable cat, named Mr. Mango Mellow Hager.
Bush Hager, 42, introduced the audience to her new fur baby during the Wednesday, Jan. 3, episode of Hoda & Jenna, sharing some of the first photos of her daughter Poppy, 8, posing with the sweet white and grey kitten.
The TV personality adopted Mr. Mango as a Christmas gift for her daughter, who was ultimately the one to pick out the cat's perfectly silly moniker.
"Santa gave Poppy the baby and she was so excited she nearly started to cry," Bush Hager said, while showing a video of the first moments of Poppy getting to meet her new pet.
But Mr. Mango isn't the only feline walking around Bush Hager's house these days, as the family also has another cat, Hollywood "Holly" Hager, who belongs to her older daughter, Mila, 10. (Bush Hager and her husband Henry Chase Hager are also parents to son Hal, 4, though he doesn't have his own personal cat yet.)
"Holly's happy to have a baby brother—she's so happy to have a baby brother," Bush Hager, 42, told co-host Hoda Kotb, who was curious if having two cats in the house would cause some problems.
But apparently that hasn't been an issue for Holly and Mr. Mango so far, as Bush Hager revealed the two cats were even "spooning," the other day.
"We're off to a good start!" Bush Hager added, despite the fact that she is actually allergic to cats. "I just took an extra Zyrtec and everything's all good!"
