Pompeo -- who plays Dr. Meredith Grey on ABC's Grey's Anatomy -- responded to the post, in character! "This is awkward because my namesake did this but as your doctor please keep that scratch clean!" she commented. "Yours truly, the real Dr. Grey."

The cat scratch also inspired another cute Instagram post on Swift's part. Posting a pic of her bandage, she quipped: "Couldn't help but make it into a pun, could I..."
Dr. Grey isn't the only one of Swift's cats named after a beloved TV leading lady. Her second feline is named Olivia Benson after Mariska Hargitay's character on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
In February, Hargitay posted a pic of her posed with Pompeo and dedicated it to Swift. "This one goes out to @TaylorSwift13 @taylorswift #CatsOutOfTheBag #NFL #NationalFelineLeague #MeowMeow #CatsMeow."
