The Biden family, known for their love of pets, has recently welcomed a new member. Alongside their two German Shepherds, Commander and Major, who have been part of the family, a new addition has joined the White House household. Willow, a two-year-old Tabby cat, has found her home with the Bidens, bringing a fresh feline presence to the Presidential family.
Prior to Willow, the Bidens had Champ, another German Shepherd who sadly passed away last year. Major was temporarily relocated due to behavior concerns, leaving Commander as the only dog at the White House. However, now Willow adds a new dynamic to the family with her playful and independent nature.
The story of how Willow came to be part of the Bidens’ lives is quite endearing. During President Biden’s 2020 campaign, Willow, as a stray cat, made her way onto the stage while he was speaking. Their instant connection led to Willow finding a permanent home with the Bidens, where she has been eagerly exploring her new surroundings.
