In memoriam for first Tuxedo under the Clinton administration. Socks would have turned 20 this year. He had been adopted in Arkansas when Chelsea was a little girl. Clinton's former secretary, Betty Currie, had cared for Socks since 2001. Socks had been suffering from a cancer of the mouth and jaw.

Socks the cat
In memoriam for first Tuxedo under the Clinton administration. Socks would have turned 20 this year. He had been adopted in Arkansas when Chelsea was a little girl. Clinton's former secretary, Betty Currie, had cared for Socks since 2001. Socks had been suffering from a cancer of the mouth and jaw.

R.I.P. Socks. A handsome kitty if ever there was one.
Nice little write-up, tut-tut. Tho' to use the words "under" and "Clinton administration" in the same sentence....I'm just sayin'...
I hope someone has notified Chelsea.
he had a long and illustrative life! rest in peace sweet socks (not to be confused with sweat socks)...
Black and white cats are typically very friendly. He looks like a sweetie.
I remember my mom, a big Democrat and cat fan, talking about Socks. I'll have to send this to her...
yeah RIP to Socks... did the Clintons take it home with them when they left?... Surely once that thicko "Dubya" moved in the cat would have run off screaming anyhow I doubt it would have got in past Bush's post-9-11 security alerts...
Hi... can you answer me something I'm most curious about: what one earth did your morning news have to say about Jade Goody, esp. if noone's heard of her your end? Just that she's v famous and dying and getting married.??
Do please RSVP!!
So long, Socks!
He's probably having a blast in the afterlife telling everyone about the crazy things he saw in the White House.
I remember Socks ... Didn't like buddy the dog much, did he? Anyway he, apparently is dead also, I believe run over.
Nice post.
Socks was a very handsome fellow. I am also adored by a Tux and he is both smart and friendly, as was Socks. I wish him a wonderful afterlife and kudos to Ms. Currie for giving Socks a comfortable life and the Clinton's for giving Socks to her.
Dennis turned against the Clintons when he heard socks was banished to some basement dungeon while that dog (who later got flattened in NY) romped upstairs. Equal Treatment for Pets!!!
Dennis says RIP Dear Socks; you had a lowbrow name, but you were wonderful.
