Internet dubs rescue cat 'Baby Yoda'

ROWAN COUNTY, North Carolina -- If you couldn't get enough of the 'Baby Yoda' craze, wait until you get a look at a rescue cat coming out of Rowan County.

With beady eyes and long-pointed ears, the cat looks oddly similar to the breakout star "The Child" from the "Star Wars: The Mandalorian" series.
