SYDNEYâ€"Cat-loving Pope Benedict XVI has been given a kitten to keep him company while he relaxes and plays the piano ahead of World Youth Day in Australia, Church insiders told Agence France Presse on Monday.

The Pontiff, an avid feline fan whose home in Germany is filled with the animals and is guarded by a cat statue, has been given an 11-month-old tabby named Bella by his followers.

“Some of the faithful brought Bella into the Pope’s retreat to keep him company while he plays the piano,” said a World Youth Day source who declined to be identified.

“He is well known for his love of cats and the piano, and we wanted to make him feel at home,” the source added.

The Pope, who flew into Sydney on Sunday ahead of the start of World Youth Day celebrations, was holed up in an Opus Dei retreat outside Sydney where he is taking a four-day holiday following his 20-hour flight from Rome.

Bella, a tabby with thick grey fur, is “very playful . . . a little bit camera shy and loves cat food,” sources said.
