The offending video featured a picture of a cat sitting in the window of a dumpling restaurant.

“Shop attendant or lunch?” Georgia captioned the video with a laughing emoji.

Georgia soon deleted the story, but took to the same platform to apologise.

“Earlier I posted a video of a cat in a restaurant window. I meant for this to be a joke about an animal being in a restaurant at lunch service time,” she penned.

“I meant absolutely no insinuation about the type of animal nor the type of restaurant, but I do see that my post did not come across like that and was offensive,” she added.

“I sincerely apologise for the oversight and offence I have caused. Thank you to those who called me out. This is what we need to make sure we are all accountable and do better. Again, I apologise from the bottom of my heart for the offence caused.”

Georgia went on to message gossip page Aussie Influencer Opinions, saying the joke was supposed to be “about an animal being in a restaurant at lunch service time.”

“I truly did not mean for any insinuation of that,” she added.
