Have you ever wondered why the fashion show runway is called a catwalk? Fun fact, its because the models walk in a way that is similar to the strut of a feline.

One Turkish show had the catwalk live up to its name, after an actual live cat walked ahead of the models, squatted down, and began licking himself clean.

You know, just your standard haute couture show.

The event took place during the Vakko ESMOD International exhibition at the Emaar Square Mall in Istanbul, Turkey, and in true model fashion, the women simply walked past the black and grey cat, while he had his fun.

The feline creature wasnt impressed nor fazed by the faff around him, as onlookers excitedly filmed his actions.

At one point, the cat began to swat away models that got too close before going back to licking himself.

Clearly a bit of a diva, the cat then assumed the role of a showstopper, taking centre stage and walking in front of a model who couldnt help but smile.

The video has now been shared all over social media, with one woman, American author Jessica Einfeld, proclaiming: This is fashion!.

Everybody was in shock, fashion designer Göksen Hakkı Ali said to The Dodo.

So far no one knows how the cat was able to get through security, enter the building, and manage to prop itself up on the catwalk.

But where theres a will, theres a way.

And the cat left as it came – shrouded in mystery.
