Meet The Nation's First Cat: White House Adopts A Tabby Cat Called 'Willow'

The White House has acquired a new addition, a furry four-legged feline tabby cat called 'Willow' after the First Lady's hometown. She was adopted by the Biden family only a few days ago and is already making a splash on social media where she has been uploaded sitting with the President and Vice President in the oval office, staring out of the large elegant white house windows, and playfully exploring her new home.

We always say that the vast majority of households could be improved with the acquisition of a feline friend, and the White House is no exception to that rule! We hope Willow gets along well with dogs, we've heard Commander can be quite a handful. Enjoy this sweet series of Tweets featuring the White House's newest addition.

Ah, yes. There is nothing quite like perching up on a comfy window and staring out into our Nation's capital. DC is a magical place, and surely that is true also for its feline residents like Willow!
