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.

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