German "studio cat"

**Prairie Purrs** · 01-11-2009, 11:37 AM

Even if (like me) you don't understand German, this video of a TV weatherman who was visited by the "studio cat" during a broadcast is adorable!

He talks about the weather- and then he says "Oh this is the studio cat who comes in although he shouldn't

I think I keep him here

" and then he continues with the weather

Gorgeous weather assistant - wonderful how the Europeans understand that pets are family

OMG, this cracks me up! LOL

I would never have expected to see Mr. Joerg Kachelmann here at PT!

And cuddles the kitty for the duration of the forecast! Watch his fingers as he scratches kitty's neck!

I am left with only one question...how's the weather?

That is SO cute! Every weather presenter should have a kitty help him.

I had to watch it a few times, fisrst to see what the kitty was doing, and then to concentrate on the German language.

It's quite a bit colder down there, compered to Denmark, but then, it's always warmer by the coast.

Randi, here in my area, it was about minus 20°C some nights ago...

Smart kitty--looking for warm snuggles on a cold day!

I think this proves that you can never be too busy to pet the cat!

Well, and at the end of his speech, Mr. Kachelmann says something like "It's getting colder, I hope all cats have a warm coat now".

Ans sad to say outside the Found Cat Hotel, the food shelter are snow bound. I will have to move them in closer to the front door where it will be easier to keep the snow away.
Thats a great clip, and that Cat should become a regular, he certainly would boost the ratings!!!!

Fun to watch again and again! This time I saw the cat's tail as it walks behind him before it circles and he picks it up!

What a great video!!!! I took German in college but was only able to catch a few words. Kirsten, thank you for your translations. It looks as if that station has a wonderful new star. The love shown to the kitty was wonderful to see. I hope the kitty will soon become a "regular" on the broadcast!

Awwwwww... that's so nice!. Not only that the studio cat came onto the set, but that he picked it up and cuddled it through the rest of the weather report.

I can just see something like that happening in a weather report here! If a cat ever did manage to get into the studio and wander onto the set, the meteorologist might pick it up, but then he or she would probably make some little cutesy smart-a$s comment and then hand the cat off to a stagehand.

Mr. Kachelmann looked like he was really enjoying holding the cat and giving it some attention it liked as he continued with his forecast. And it was so cute the times he and the cat rubbed chins with each other!

Barbara and Kirsten, is that area he is reporting on anywhere near where either of you live?
