“I Apologize For My Cat’s Tail”: Scottish MP Goes Viral After His Cat Photobombs A Zoom Meeting
If there’s one thing to love about Zoom meetings, it’s the hilarious interruptions that happen every once in a while. This week, a Scottish member of parliament gained internet fame after his cat Rojo photobombed a virtual meeting.
John Nicolson, a parliament member for Ochil & South Perthshire, was speaking about the advantages of putting subtitles on children’s television when he was suddenly interrupted by his cat’s tail waving across the screen.

The laughter continued as Rojo seemingly refused to step out of the view of the camera. “Rojo, put your tail down, please,” John then told his ginger four-legged friend, much to the amusement of his colleagues.
The video almost instantly went viral

Adorable.... but also it never occurred to me that putting on CC would increase literacy in children. Maybe we can get more info to go viral is we add cute cat content.

I don't know about children, but I always watch movies with subtitles. English isn't my first language and sometimes actors are hard to understand when they whisper or shout. Plus it helps with memorizing the correct spelling. Pot player has this useful feature when you pause and click on a word from the subtitles it googles it.
