Presidential Trivia (Feb. 7 & 8)
Answers will be posted tomorrow.
(1) One President was the first United States citizen to have a Siamese cat. Which President?
(2) The Coolidges had a cat, but no President had a cat for quite a while after that. Who was the first President to have a cat after the Coolidges?
(3) It’s thought that which President was the first to have a pet cat at the White House?
1) Rutherford B. Hayes. Siam was a gift from theAmerican consul in Bangkok, David B. Sickels.
2) Hmm, well JFK had a grey shorthair named Tom Kitten that belonged to Caroline. JFK proved to be very allergic so his stay was short lived. The "official" answer would seem to be Susan Ford's Siamese cat Shan in 1974.
3) Abraham Lincoln had Tabby and Dixie, both gifts from SOS William Seward
