The Post takes a look at the latest weird and wonderful news from across Asia.

From a cat who does sit-ups, a traditional Chinese wedding for penguins, and an Indian man who bites back the snake that bit him.

Stray cat sit-up

A cat in southwestern China’s Sichuan province was spotted doing a workout usually reserved for humans, and always in the same place.

A video of the stray doing sit-ups under a white car in a residential area was posted by Douyin user @Jujindeyali on July 2.

To her surprise, other people began posting photos of the same cat doing the same exercise under the same car, taken at different times of the day and night.

Online observers said they were impressed by the cat’s determination and willpower. One quipped: “How can I not work out hard when a cat is so self-disciplined?”
