The Weather Forecasting Cat

When German weatherman Jörg Kachelmann was doing his live weather report, he had an unexpected guest: a cat named Lupin wandered into the studio. Without missing a beat, Jörg picked up the cat and continued on!

"I don’t know how he got into the studio," Kachelmann said, adding Lupin belonged to a staffer who was out of town.

"I noticed him when he rubbed against my leg and thought people might wonder what was happening. I figured it would be easier to control the cat by picking him up. Cats get annoyed if they feel ignored. So I made sure he didn’t feel ignored."

    It's a German channel but he is actually Swiss. He's an unusual fellow, not your ordinary weatherman, he is also a comedian and hosts an interesting talk show called "Riverboat."

    Just in case anyone wonders about the map: that's Rhineland-Palatinate, a one of the Bundesländer that make up the country... Federal Republic, and all that. ;)

    If I weren't married, I'd brush up against THAT weather man too.

    Yuck, Evilbeagle.

    That was cute, how the cat just stayed there, trying to sniff the guy's face.

    Noticeable that the cat is rather small. As we all know, large cats (lions, etc. can be very dangerous; however, a little pussy never hurt anyone.

    I dunno, I think he's pretty cute. And so's the cat :)

    The dude is such a professional! Doing his job and totally unfazed by the cat. The cat definitely liked him.

    The cat is just so calm and happy to be held, not wiggly at all. Cute!
