NORTHPORT, NY — Ghost, a 7-month-old male tabby, is the Northport Cat Rescue Association's Kitten of the Week.

"Ghost is one of the sweetest kittens ever," said Lora Wild, a volunteer with the rescue.

He was covered with filth and fleas when he was rescued, according to Wild. However, he holds no grudges and simply wants attention.

"In foster care he thrived, loving affection and snuggles and always up for some playtime, even some human board games!" Wild wrote. "He will sit on your lap during a game of Scrabble and help you win!"

Ghost loves other cats and plays with them with ease and was good when introduced to a dog, Wild said.
