Gwen Stefani and Blake Shelton have a new addition to their family.
The No Doubt singer, 54, shared a video on her Instagram introducing her 17.7 million followers to Corn Shelton, whom she shares with her husband Blake, 48.
This is Corn Shelton. The day he arrived at our house, he was barely alive and very sick, but with a lot of love and care, he became a healthy kitten. “We are so grateful you are part of our family,” he captioned the post.
Corn is an adorable gray and white kitten that The Voice judge found in his home on the brink of death.
The feline made a controversial appearance on the singing competition earlier this week, and fans were worried about the cat being on live television.
Gwen, who recently announced her first studio album in seven years, nursed Corn back to health and became so attached to him that she adopted the cute, green-eyed kitten.

Fans gushed about the cute pet and the story of his rescue in the comments section.
‘That cat distribution system even knows Gwen!’ one fan humorously joked while another added: ‘You’ve been chosen by the cat distribution system haha.’
‘Here’s to Gwen in her country era,’ someone else wrote, while another fan pointed out the obvious, ‘can you imagine being @gwenstefani and @blakeshelton’s cat?’ Are you kidding?
Gwen brought the cat on stage during the season premiere of The Voice earlier this week and used it to lure contestants to her team.
The way she handled the kitten sparked a backlash from viewers and fans, with several of them criticizing her for “torturing” the little cat, which is a totally different mindset than the commenters on her new cat video.
Singer Sydney Sterlace sang Olivia Rodrigo’s Driver’s License and Stefani handed her the cat afterwards in an attempt to convince Sydney to choose her as a mentor.
She said, ‘You know, Sydney… This little thing happened to me.
‘This little creature came onto my porch and was barely alive and I said, “I love you, you’re my new cat,” but I don’t have a name! So I thought maybe I could call him Sydney.
He raised his voice when the kitten meowed and said, ‘This cat’s name is Sydney!’
When Sydney chose Stefani as her mentor, the Spiderwebs singer screamed “Oh my God!” as he held the squirming kitten, who looked to be around six weeks old, in the air while hugging his new apprentice.

He then walked off stage holding the kitten in the air with both hands, and his behavior was quickly branded “disturbing”, “horrifying” and “unacceptable”.
One fan wrote: ‘Please never let Gwen near an animal again. The way he kept lifting that scared little kitten above his head was horrible.
Another wrote: “I love you so much but please never do that to such a young animal again.” The noise, the way you held him like he was a stuffed animal dangling from your fingers, all of that would be traumatizing for such a small kitten.’
Others wrote: ‘Please don’t bring baby animals and swing them for entertainment. How sad to see that scared kitten’
