Apr 20, 2025

Washington DC [US], April 20: A cat found its way onto the heavily secured north lawn of the White House in Washington on Friday, causing a stir among journalists who documented the appearance of the grey, green-eyed pet named Sophie on social media.
Eventually, with the help of White House staff, the owner was located. Sophie even briefly ended up in the famous briefing room, where reporters usually direct their questions to Karoline Leavitt, the spokeswoman for US President Donald Trump.
As the incident happened to occur on Good Friday, one reporter dubbed it Good Friday news. The area around the White House is one of the most heavily secured facilities in the world.
