Today is National Pet Day. We are celebrating our animal friends with a look back at pets that have lived in the White House. From Franklin D. Roosevelt's Scottish Terrier Fala, the Kennedy's pet horse Macaroni, and the Clinton family's cat Socks. These are the pets that kept the presidential families company through their stay in Washington.
