Life beyond the Oval Office has taken shape for former First Lady Jill Biden. The former teacher shared a glimpse into this new chapter with her Instagram followers, posting an endearing snap of their cat, Willow, amidst moving boxes, with the caption: "Best unpacking buddy."
Former President Joe Biden has often said he has two homes in Ireland and Delaware. Upon leaving the White House, Biden said he and Jill were set to return to the coast once he left the presidential office.
However, it's not been all rosy as there was a touch of frustration at how his tenure was cut short, but some supporters conceded that the 81-year-old, nudged by party peers to step back, was showing signs of age. Now, the couple has moved back to the Blue Hen State, adjusting to retirement and playing with their pet.
With the Biden dogs, Major and Commander, no longer running around the White House, it's Willow, the cat, who’s keeping the family company.

Sox was Clinton cat who got pawned off to Betty Currie when they left the White House.
Cats sit on your chest when it’s your time. They know it. I think they find something in watching your soul depart. Every nursing home has “the cat”, that nobody wants to see come into their room.
New Ireland would be better. Tropical paradise.
Jill has an Ed.D., not a Ph.D. Big difference.
Nice try; does nothing to humanize them.
Gee....where did all that money comefrom???

This former babysitter for the bidens has a n ED.D. (one of the more vacuous degrees given on any planet...and beyond).
I remember they dumped it on some White House aide right after they left office.
I’ll say something nice. Nice cat you got.
>> That was before the clumping stuff.
STOP IT!!! I’m rolling on the floor and I hit my head!
