Associated Press

   PESHAWAR, PAKISTAN - It was a mistake that had some people in Pakistan
   scratching their whiskers.

   A regional minister was giving a briefing that was live-streamed on
   social media last week when viewers noticed officials appeared as cats.
   Someone had left a cat filter on.

   Social media was quick to pounce on the image.
   In a statement posted on Twitter, the ruling party's social media team
   wrote after investigating it determined "human error" by a hard-working
   volunteer caused the mistake. The team said the cat filter was removed
   "within a few minutes."

   The team says actions have been taken to prevent "such an incident" in
   the future.
