A Stray Cat ‘Meowing’ into CCTV Live Stream ‘Caught’ After Several Days
Not long ago, CCTV News channel went viral in the pet world.
The reason originated from a mysterious voice outside the mirror—'Meow~'.

Starting from February, many viewers would occasionally hear a faint cat meow while watching CCTV News channel.

Initially, many viewers thought they were experiencing auditory hallucinations or that a cat had entered their homes. Many people stopped watching the news and started looking for cats at home, never suspecting that this soft and adorable voice came from the serious news channel.


After all, Bai Yanquan was still connecting with guests in a serious manner, Zhu Guangquan was still making up jokes, and Ouyang Xidan's professional smile had no flaws. It was as if everyone doubted their own hearing.
However, the netizens soon stopped doubting, because the cat meow appeared in many programs, sometimes like a gong, sometimes like a whisper, sometimes languid and lazy, sometimes mischievous and cute…
However, the CCTV hosts were all professionally qualified, no matter how much the cat meowed, they could still report various news without changing their expressions. This might be the reason why many people thought they were experiencing auditory hallucinations.

Although the news reporting work was not affected, netizens humorously renamed the various programs,Cat Knows Everything, Cat Knows Lazy Cats, Cat Knows 30 Minutes, News Bai+Cat, 24 Hours Lazy Cats…
For a while, the whole nation started a 'cloud cat adoption' lifestyle. Some even refused to leave the front of CCTV programs for a whole day just to hear a cat meow.


More surprisingly, in recent times, the viewership rate of the news channel has risen sharply. Many viewers joked that this was all due to the blessing of the cat meow.

However, despite the jokes, everyone was curious about the origin of the cat.

Some said it was a cat that CCTV raised to prevent rats from damaging valuable cable equipment;
Some said it was a cat raised by staff members who brought cats to work, and they even inquired with people who had cats at home to ask about it;
Some thought that because of the many bad news in the Year of the Rat, CCTV specially raised a fierce cat to stabilize the situation;

Some even heard from the cat's voice that the cat was calling for help, worried that the cat was trapped somewhere.

Fortunately, the cat's whereabouts finally had a clear trace.
On March 12th, a netizen named 'Cat and Love World' posted a message.
The article stated that there were many stray cats in the courtyard of CCTV's Fuxing Road headquarters, which had always been taken care of by CCTV staff members, and most of the cats had been sterilized. However, there were still a few shy and fearful cats hiding and sneaking into nearby television stations' control rooms.
This year, CCTV News Center was conducting a live broadcast room renovation, so the live broadcasts have recently been moved to the control rooms, which are very close to where the cats were.

Moreover, it was also the cat's mating season, and the unsterilized kittens made a lot of noise every day, so that's how everyone heard the cat meow.
However, eventually, these cats were 'captured' by the staff, and the staff named them based on their appearances—two large cats were named Bai Xiao Bai and Ju Pan Pan, and their appearances were very appropriate. They also had a baby, because he was very small, so he was named Ding Ding Miao.The staff also launched an activity called 'Adopt CCTV Cats' to find them a complete family.In the face of the sudden adoption message, netizens were overjoyed and shouted 'Happiness comes so suddenly.'Some netizens even worried about Bai Xiao Bai and Ju Pan Pan and hoped that they could be adopted together because they were childhood sweethearts.If you are interested, you can apply for adoption on the official adoption platform, and these three cats have Beijing household registration, you must seize the opportunity!
