A Latvian mayor was in the middle of a live stream when one of his office cats decided to be a part of the political process.

Riga Mayor Nils Ušakovs was answering questions when a black cat casually walked into the shot in order to take a sip out of his mug.

Ušakovs stopped speaking as the cat continued to do exactly what it wanted. Ušakovs looked up after a few moments to laugh and then shooed the cat to the floor.

A video of the incident was shared on Facebook, with a caption reminding viewers that “anything can happen” when cats are in the office.

The scene brings back memories of a famous March interview in which a dad was hilariously interrupted by his young children:

If there’s one thing to be learned, it’s to always check your surroundings before addressing the public.
