Her name is Willow, and she's a 2-year-old, green-eyed, gray and white farm cat from Pennsylvania.
"Willow is settling into the White House with her favorite toys, treats, and plenty of room to smell and explore," said Michael LaRosa, the first lady's spokesperson.

The Bidens introduced their new cat, a 2-year-old Tabby named Willow, to the world on Friday, January 28, 2022.

Pretty girl. Close-set eyes tell me she's got a little Siamese in her so probably a "talker"...
