A wandering baby fur-seal wriggled through the cat-door of a Bay of Plenty house - and made himself at home on the couch.
A stunned Annette Swoffer thought she must have been hallucinating when she found the young pup hanging out with her cats in her kitchen on Sunday night.
Stunned, Ms Swoffer called a friend who lives in a unit at the same property to come and verify what she was seeing.
"I'm looking and I'm definitely seeing flippers and not paws."
Calmly, the young pup then eased past Ms Swoffer's dog and cats before making himself at home on a couch and attempting to snuggle in for the night.

It gets even better. The homeowner called the Dept of Conservation who had been already been looking for a wayward seal pup who had been reported in the area. They came and collected him without incident... well, almost:

At Ms Swoffer's home, the seal was put in a net and box but as it was being driven away in the DOC vehicle, it escaped and made its way up to the front of the vehicle, accidentally turning on the radio and ending up on the front seat.
