Many Twitter users expressed excitement over the new cat, while others thought it was a ploy to distract from the several critical crises the Biden administration is currently facing, including the state of the economy and the possibility of a Russian invasion of Ukraine.

“First Cat Willow is pawsitively purrfect,” Democrat Sen. Mazie Hirono of Hawaii wrote in response to the news.


“So excited there is a cat back in @WhiteHouse!” wrote Chelsea Clinton.


“Don’t worry about Ukraine, the border, or inflation — look at this cute kitty!” wrote Fox News’s Lisa Boothe.

“The White House getting a new cat is getting more attention in the media than CNN deleting their reporting on Biden’s Ukraine call,” tweeted conservative media creator Benny Johnson.
