Clintons' Socks Has Poor Prognosis

U.S. News' Washington Whispers blog reports today that our former First Cat, Socks, is suffering from cancer, weight loss and kidney problems, and is not expected to live much longer. The black-and-white feline with white feet may be, as the Whispers blog states, "the most photographed presidential kitty in history." The Clintons adopted Socks in 1991, and he has been living with President Clinton's former personal secretary Betty Currie in southern Maryland since the Clintons left office in 2001. Ghost author of Dear Socks, Dear Buddy: Kids' Letters To First Pets told U.S. News that, while acting as First Cat, Socks "was nothing but a gentleman. He was elegant and a perfect resident of the White House."
