(CNN)First lady Jill Biden has revealed the long-awaited Biden family cat.
She is a short-haired, two-year-old gray tabby named Willow. The name is inspired by the first lady's hometown of Willow Grove, Pennsylvania.
Biden first met Willow at a campaign stop in 2020, according to information provided by the first lady's press secretary Michael LaRosa, when the cat jumped on stage and the owners of the farm where the event was being held noticed the "immediate bond"they shared.
"Willow is settling into the White House with her favorite toys, treats, and plenty of room to smell and explore," LaRosa said in a statement.
In April, the first lady said in an interview the cat was "waiting in the wings." She has been fostered by acquaintances for the last several months.
Willow now shares the White House with Commander, a pure-bred German Shepherd puppy, that the Biden's adopted in December of last year.
