YOU DO HAVE TO APPRECIATE...:

Clinton's White House cat Socks dies (KASEY JONES, 2/21/09, Chicago Sun-Times)

Socks, the White House cat during the Clinton administration who waged war on Buddy the pup, has died. He was around 18.

Socks had lived with former President Bill Clinton's secretary, Betty Currie, in Hollywood, Md., since the Clintons left the White House in early 2001.

...the way they don't even pretend it was ever the Clinton's cat.
