Cuddly Kitten Runs for Russian Office

Bublik checks his Facebook page

He is possibly the most adorable candidate running for office you'll ever meet. You just want to cuddle with him. His name is Bublik. He is a 3-month-old kitten who recently declared he wants to enter the dog-eat-dog world of Russian politics. The competitive kitty is ready to start kissing babies and shaking hands.

As reported by The Moscow Times, Bublik's press secretary, Ivan Kolotovkin, said that the cat's slogan is "For a Fun Future!"

Bublik was encouraged to throw his hat into the ring, by the candidacy of Hank the cat. Hank is a former street cat running for Senate in Virginia. You can read more about Hank, in "Vote for Hank the Cat for Senate!"

"If Hank the cat takes the U.S. Senate seat, cats between different countries could collaborate in productive ways," Kolotovkin said.

Vote for Hank the Cat for Senate!

Hank the Senate candidate strikes a patriotic pose.

Hank the cat is an independent running for Senate in Virginia. The rescue cat is a handsome 9-year old Maine Coon from a hardscrabble life on the streets. He was taken to an animal shelter and was on death row. Fortunately he was saved by Animal Allies, a rescue group.

Hank wants to replace the seat of Senator Jim Webb who is retiring. The cat is a write-in candidate running against former Virginia Governors Tim Kaine and George Allen. The furry politician's slogan is "A Better Virginia... A Brighter Future." Here is Hank's inspiring campaign video: 

His campaign headquarters is run by his staff from his home in Springfield, VA. Join the Hank for Senate Facebook page and check out his website.
