Stray cat interrupts live Turkish news broadcast, casually sits on anchor's laptop

It's long been an established fact that animals and live television do not mix particularly well. But at least if you're sat in a news studio you're safe, right? SEE ALSO: News anchor completely loses it during story on man who lived as goat Well, apparently not.According to Daily Sabah Turkey, the anchor for the regional Turkish news show Good Morning Denizli recently had his broadcast interrupted by a stray cat. This Tweet is currently unavailable. It might be loading or has been removed. To be fair to the host, he seemed to handle the whole thing pretty calmly.The cat in question apparently snuck into the studio from the street. Daily Sabah reports that it's since been adopted by a member of staff at the station.BONUS: Kitten defies death on busy highway (() => { window.videoEmbeds = window.videoEmbeds || []; let data = {"id":574,"uuid":"00sUBriYHI1oPzRUTYXOWCS","slug":"54bo2ke0Ed","status":"Published","type":"mashable","original_file":null,"url":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/master.m3u8","thumbnail_url":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/thumbnail-720.webp","transcoded_urls":["https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/720p.mp4","https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/540p.mp4","https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/360p.mp4","https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/270p.mp4"],"title":"You will quietly freak out at video of tiny kitten defying death on busy highway","deck":"A good samaritan stopped his car in the middle of traffic to save a small kitten in Kaliningrad, Russia.","disable_ads":0,"duration":43,"source_info":null,"processing_info":null,"provider_video_id":"a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8","provider_video_status":"active","provider_video_metadata":{"id":"a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8","status":"active","createdAt":"2025-01-09T00:13:31.224Z","mediaData":{"width":1280,"height":720,"poster":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/thumbnail-720.webp","mimeType":"video\/mp4","mediaType":"video","resolutions":[{"res":720,"width":1280,"height":720,"poster":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/thumbnail-720.webp","filesize":10468368,"videoUrl":"https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/720p.mp4"},{"res":540,"width":960,"height":540,"poster":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/thumbnail-540.webp","filesize":6536162,"videoUrl":"https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/540p.mp4"},{"res":360,"width":640,"height":360,"poster":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/thumbnail-360.webp","filesize":3692773,"videoUrl":"https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/360p.mp4"},{"res":270,"width":480,"height":270,"poster":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/thumbnail-270.webp","filesize":2483573,"videoUrl":"https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/270p.mp4"}],"originalVideoUrl":"https:\/\/large-cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/720p.mp4","streamingSourceURL":"https:\/\/cdn.ex.co\/transformations\/production\/a9ccda75-ad01-46f6-b76d-6e5013a7d3d8\/master.m3u8"},"updatedAt":"2025-01-30T09:47:14.300Z","videoSpecMeta":{"tags":["Viral Videos","X\/Twitter","Animals","Social Media"],"title":"You will quietly freak out at video of tiny kitten defying death on busy highway","author":"mashable","pubDate":"2016-09-16T14:10:16.000Z","duration":42.625,"fileSize":10468368,"externalId":"54bo2ke0Ed","description":"A good samaritan stopped his car in the middle of traffic to save a small kitten in Kaliningrad, Russia."}},"force_max_resolution":null,"created_at":"2016-09-16T14:10:16.000000Z","updated_at":"2025-01-30T09:48:21.000000Z","published_at":"2016-09-16T14:10:16.000000Z","first_published_at":"2016-09-16T14:10:16.000000Z","last_published_at":"2025-01-30T09:48:21.000000Z","excoPlayListId":"6825f7191ad7f3226d4a872b","excoPlayVideos":{"3a028126-a817-5903-9b90-7dc6a64e8356":"06WWAYE2K1HZnTzXTMpbuWK","3b2961ed-b0f3-57ed-b3bb-c6b19e0064ce":"01G8MB21NKq2DSvZMUcCk2B","4686c2ea-a42c-4894-85c5-bbeb8d647bfb":"0163ryLIAfdkXcv9gEx9teq","567e6caa-26cb-4f01-bdc0-34b0b0e3ba26":"01Q1DBepNMD1D21RVs3vhEQ","6cd0b191-a060-5cba-9bdb-f1d973a260aa":"01dRJaG0DaKVshXwJxD1leO"}};
