To Celebrate Presidents' Day, Here's Bill Clinton With a Cat

Happy Presidents' Day! You've probably already heard enough inspirational Abraham Lincoln quotes and read one too many scandalous stories about Andrew Jackson. Instead, let's celebrate this holiday about all things POTUS in true Internet style -- with cats.

Well, one cat. One really cool, White House hobnobbing kitty.

Socks the cat served as the Director of Feline Affairs during the Clinton Administration and rubbed elbows -- err, noses -- with the Commander in Chief. He was known to hold meetings in the Oval Office, socialize with local strays and take rides on Bill Clinton's shoulders.
