Gigi Hadid is proving to be inseparable from her new kitten since adopting it on Sunday.
The 19-year-old supermodel cradled the tiny feline named Cleo on a lunch outing with her rumoured beau Joe Jonas in Beverly Hills on Monday.
The Maybelline spokeswoman was perhaps copying her good gal pal and Joe's ex Taylor Swift, whom has also taken her beloved feline, Olivia Benson, out on the town.
Gigi clutched Cleo to her chest while seated for lunch, appearing besotted by the cuddly creature.

It seems Cleo does well during public outings, as she slept cuddled up in Gigi's purse during dinner the night before, as seen in a photo she tweeted.
Gigi adopted the kitten on Sunday after it was found in a car engine last week.
The blonde beauty set up an Instagram account for Cleo right away, and she can be found at @therealcleohadid.

Meanwhile, her BFF Kendall Jenner adopted a puppy the same day, with Taylor Swift tweeting side-by-side images of Gigi and Kendall and their new pets.
The 25-year-old singer wrote: 'I don't see a way for me to process all of the tiny animal related cuteness that has occurred today. I MEAN LOOK!'
Taylor is a big cat fan herself, as mother to Meredith and Olivia Benson.
Gigi continued to bond with Cleo during lunch with Joe at Il Pastaio Italian restaurant.
The rumoured couple were seen arriving at the venue with Gigi's father, Mohamed Hadid.
Gigi appeared to have just hit the gym, looking like a walking Nike advertisement in head-to-toe gear from the brand, including a semi-sheer white T-shirt, black leggings, and black sneakers.
Joe looked trendy in a denim button-up shirt paired with black trousers and pale brown slip-on shoes, topping the look off with a black leather cap.
After lunch, the duo left together in the same car.
Gigi and Joe are rumoured to be dating, having put on a public display of affection during an outing in Los Angeles on Saturday.
They were seen hugging, with Joe planting an affectionate kiss on Gigi's cheek.
For weeks now, Gigi and Joe have been spotted spending time together both on the west coast and New York City.
On Thursday, Joe met Gigi at the airport in NYC when she flew in from Brazil; they were seen holding hands in a car while departing the travel hub.
Neither have yet to confirm their romance, but they are certainly not denying their newfound likening to one another.
Gigi previously denied the dating rumours, telling E! News in October: 'It's just really hilarious for us.
'We will read it and we will be like, "Oh, we're dating. Oh cool." We just laugh it off. It's funny for us. All the brothers are amazing, but I'm closest with Joe.'
Gigi became newly single in May after ending her on-off relationship with Australian singer Cody Simpson, whom she dated for over two years.
And while Gigi may have a new musician beau in her life, she could be breaking a cardinal Girl Code.
Joe famously dated her good friend Taylor Swift back in 2008, but the singer was quickly dumped by him over a 27-second phone call.
The harsh breakup inspired the country-pop crossover to pen two songs - Forever and Always and You're Not Sorry - which made it on her Fearless album.
