Journalist Kyle Meredith, who interviewed Swift earlier this year, shared a snap of the card, which showed her trio of cats looking festive in various accessories, such as a party hat, scarf and Santa hat.
To mimic Swift’s Folklore album cover, her fur babies were Photoshopped in front of a forest backdrop and the card was filtered to be black and white.
Some fans, who ordered merchandise from the August singer, received a postcard version of the card with a different note from Taylor Nation.

In an interview with the publication, she opened up about feeling triggered by divorce stories after Scott Borchetta sold her entire catalog (six albums total) to Scooter Braun’s Ithaca Holidngs last year without giving her the opportunity to buy it herself.
Her Folklore songs My Tears Ricochet and Mad Woman, both of which are about betrayal, loss and a relationship ending badly with a divorce, are also reflective of her betrayal she went through because of Scott and Scooter.
The parallels between divorce and her own ordeal she explained during the interview, led her to writing the two songs.
Candid: She has been named as one of Entertainment Weekly’s Entertainers of the Year. The music icon revealed she felt triggered by divorce stories after what she went through with with her catalog being sold behind her back by Scott Borchetta, who ran Big Machine Label and signed Taylor as a teen, to someone who she claims has bullied her – Scooter Braun
She also revealed that these songs were in ‘in some ways imaginary, in some ways not, and in some ways both.’
Taylor explained to EW writer Alex Suskind that any story, movie or narrative ‘revolving around divorce’ would trigger her.
The star noted: ‘There’s no reason it should cause me so much pain, but all of a sudden it felt like something I had been through.’

She explained, speaking of her time at Big Machine Records with Scott, who founded the label in 2005: ‘I think it happens any time you’ve been in a 15-year relationship and it ends in a messy, upsetting way.’
Taylor signed with Big Machine Records at age 16, releasing six albums Taylor Swift (2006), Fearless (2008) Speak Now (2010), Red (2012), 1989 (2014) and Reputation (2017).
In 2018, Taylor signed with Republic Records, a label under Universal Music Group; any music she releases she owns, including Folklore and Lover, which she released last year.
Taylor said she wrote the song My Tears Ricochet using imagery that she had ‘conjured up while comparing a relationship ending to when people end an actual marriage.’
Through the deal, in addition to Taylor’s masters, he also gets the music of Reba McEntire, Sheryl Crow, Florida Georgia Line, Thomas Rhett, Rascal Flatts and Lady Antebellum.
On her Tumblr post last year, Taylor slammed Scooter as well as Big Machine Label Group CEO Scott and revealed she was not offered the opportunity to buy her own masters and that the former bullied her for years.
