This very confused-looking cat was captured on Google Street View near the Roman Forum.

The cat was sat next to Roman ruins at the Largo di Torre Argentina in Rome, which is now a cat sanctuary .

You’ll need to search for the area on Google Maps and then click on the history tab to see the creature.

The confused cat is said to be sat near where Julius Caesar was murdered.

It’s previously caused debate online as Google Maps fans can’t agree on whether the animal is a moose or a reindeer.

There’s thought to be over one billion sheep in the world so it’s no surprise that plenty can be found on Google Street View.

The Faroe Islands even has its own version of Street View called Sheep View.

Flying hare

The Google Street View van was accused of hitting this hare and sending it flying into the air.

The van was driving along the Biala Droga road in Poland when it caught the creature.

Some Street View fans claim they can pinpoint the exact moment the poor hare was hit.

The British seaside resort of Brighton is full of seagulls so it’s no surprise the Google Street View camera was subjected to a seagull photobomb when it went to visit.

This particular seagull is carrying a large amount of food in its beak.

Anyone who has visited Brighton will know that the seagulls will steal your food if you give them the chance.

The event was captured on Brighton’s John Street.
