India ‘Willie’ Bush, President George Bush’s Cat
By admin | June 28, 2007
India “Willie” Bush is US President’s George W. Bush and Laura Bush’s black cat. He has lived with the Bush family for more than ten years.
India likes to hide from her owners. Her favorite place to nap is under the bed and her favorite food is Tuna-flavored kitty treats.
Unlike the previous White House Cat, Socks, India does not mind the company of the family dogs, Barney and Miss Beazley. She is, however, upset that she does not get a special page devoted to her and her antics on the whitehouse web site. In fact, she is a bit jealous of presidential terrier Barney who gets his very own gallery and interactive page.
- Trivia
- He was named after Texas baseball player, Ruben Sierra, also known as El Indio.
- There was some controversy reported in India as several people were upset with the cat’s name. In the southern state of Kerala in India, 101 dogs were renamed Bush in protest to President Bush’s cat being called India.
