Hedren's granddaughter Dakota Johnson also celebrated her famous grandma on Instagram by sharing several glam shots of Hedren through the years.

"Happy Birthday Mor Mor," Johnson, 31, wrote next to the shots, using the her sweet nickname for her grandma.

Johnson recently gave an update on Hedren's famous exotic cats collection, revealing the icon still has tigers and lions living with her.

"She has 13 or 14," Johnson said on The Graham Norton Show. "There used to be like 60 cats, and now there's just a couple."

Referencing a series of 1970's photographs — which included a photo of Johnson's mother, Griffith, with a 400 lb. lion named Neal — host Norton asked whether Johnson also grew up with the animals.

"By the time I was born they were all in huge compounds and it was a lot safer," Johnson said. "It wasn't as totally psycho as it was when they first started."
