A tabby cat made an impromptu visit to the Anfield stadium during a football match between Liverpool and Tottenham. No one knows how the feline got onto the field. As she was slinking around the field in front of the goalkeeper, she turned a muted match into an exciting one. After several personnel carefully escorted the kitty off the field to safety, the fame of the Anfield cat just began.
A twitter account (@AnfieldCat) dedicated to the Anfield Cat immediately gained over 22k followers after the incident. The match ended goalless, but it was a memorable game thanks to the Anfield cat.
