Who knew Jennifer Garner was such a fan of Meow Mix?

Yes, the 44-year-old actress chatted with E! News at the premiere of Nine Lives—yes, a movie about cats—and dished her favorite name for a kitty.

"A good cat name for me would be, what was the cat who did the Meow Mix commercials? Morris!" she laughed. "Because I grew up loving Morris. I had a t-shirt with Morris on it! and I would want be, 'Meow meow meow meow...'"

Yes! She even began singing that famous Meow Mix jingle, and it was simply everything. (Also, where can we find that shirt?!)
