Internet, meet your benevolent feline ruler.

Princess Aurora is a Ragdoll cat who lives with her owners, Emily and Niklas, in Sweden. Since her adoption at three months old, her regal photos have amassed quite the Instagram following, although that shouldn't be surprising for a born royal.

"It didn't take long for us to realize she was a princess," Aurora's family told Mashable. "She has always had it in her and even if cats are known for being the rulers of the house, Aurora takes that to the next level.

Fittingly, Princess Aurora is known for her array of tiaras and crowns, which her owners say she really doesn't mind wearing.

"We occasionally get people asking us if she hates it but the truth is she really doesn't. When she doesn't like something she always lets us know," they said.

One of Aurora's most contemporary looks is her flower crown, which is basically an IRL version of the flower crown Snapchat filter and would absolutely make Lana del Rey jealous.

It is also worth noting that Aurora is extremely fluffy — cloudlike, even.

For now, this princess's favorite activities are "eating, sleeping and being pampered." She also loves to go for walks; it's easier to interface with her public this way.

Would-be subjects can follow Aurora on Instagram and Facebook.
