Watch the birdie, sorry, cat, Leo the cat, and the chap in the robes is the Dean of Canterbury.

Wait for it, wait for it …

Watch the moment Leo the cat disappears under the Dean of Canterbury's robes as he gives a sermon! Footage from Canterbury Cathedral pic.twitter.com/CMk6Jmlz20

‘And like that … he is gone.’

And our favourite things people said about it.

One cat every 20 seconds. I stopped counting at 4,000.

I do hope no-one lifts up the Dean's robe and is startled to see a pussy. #thanksmrsslocombe

Robert Willis, Dean of Canterbury is the 39th Dean since the Reformation, and forms part of a line of similar roles unbroken back to the time of Saint Augustine in AD 597.

I love the way the cat pauses to make sure everyone gets a good look at the pencil sharpener before disappearing. #TypicalCat #Proud
