Socks Clinton Currie, 1989-2009


Last Friday Socks Clinton Currie, the former Clinton cat who was given to Betty Currie when the Clintons left the White House, died. He had throat cancer.

Socks was given away by the Clintons when they got a dog, Buddy, who didn't get along with Socks. Buddy was hit by a car not long afterwards, but no one ever proved Socks had anything to do with the hit.

Having lost two cats of my own, Claudius and Germanicus, not so long ago, I really sympathize with Betty Currie in her loss.

To prevent bumming everyone out, here is a video of kittens.
