A trio of cats have evaded tight security at the G20 summit and have appeared on stage as the world's leaders gather.

Barack Obama , Vladimir Putin and David Cameron were upstaged by the cute kitties who were unexpected guests at the important global event, being held in Antalya in Turkey.

In the footage, one older cat first comes from behind the curtain and darts towards the front of the stage.

It is soon joined by two younger cats who are also keen to have their presence known.

A cat was also spotted as the leaders arrived at the venue, but it made a quick getaway before security personnel could act.

The event is being chaired by Turkey's president Recep Tayyip Erdogan and draws to a close today.
