"My husband, when I started dating him, he had two cats... One of the cats was like a pedigree model bitch, and she staged a coup against me. I'd come home, and there'd just be poo on my pillow. And I was like, 'it's me or the cats'. But I won!"
"I need to clarify something for all cat lovers in the world. I am a lover of cats. I woke up this morning to the world thinking that I really don't love cats. It's really weighed on me all day... I felt sick."
"There's been a misconception because of an interview that I did. I want to tell cat people that I actually auditioned to be a cat once. It was honestly the worst... I gave the worst audition of my life."
Actress Jessie Buckley, nominated for Best Actress at the Academy Awards for her role in Hamnet, faced online scrutiny when comments she made three months earlier on a podcast resurfaced. In the original interview, Buckley described how one of her husband's cats engaged in destructive behavior, leading her to issue an ultimatum resulting in the cats being rehomed. The anecdote gained unexpected attention on the final day of Oscar voting, prompting Buckley to appear on The Tonight Show to clarify that she is actually a cat lover. She explained the misconception arose from the interview and humorously revealed she had auditioned for Tom Hooper's Cats film, describing it as her worst audition experience.
