‘The Walking Dead’s Khary Payton Shares Holiday Photo With Shiva

Fans of The Walking Dead are holding their cats a little closer these days, and Khary Payton is putting his on a social media holiday card.

Payton, who plays King Ezekiel on The Walking Dead, recently had to portray his character losing his precious jungle cat Shiva. In the weeks following the Some Guy episode, Payton took to Twitter to share a holiday photo with several of his co-stars and a photoshopped tiger.

Check out the photo below.

“You’ll all be glad to know that Shiva is fine and looking lovely in her favorite holiday bow,” Payton wrote with the photo. “(She later ate Jim Gaffigan) Happy Thanksgiving!”

Also in the photo are Cooper Andrews, Xander Berkeley, Lennie James, Austin Amelio, Norman Reedus, Avi Nash, Tom Payne, Alanna Masterson, Steven Ogg, Jim Gaffigan, and Pollyanna McIntosh.

The Walking Dead airs Sundays at 9 pm ET on AMC. For complete coverage and insider info all season long, follow @BrandonDavisBD on Twitter.
