Yes, the Pope is Catholic.
Any baptized male Catholic can be elected Pope. Although the chances of a non-cardinal being elected is very small.
Here is a link to the official biography of the Pope: http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/benedict_xvi/biography/documents/hf_ben-xvi_bio_20050419_short-biography_en.html
With love in Christ.

Last time I checked he was Catholic. But perhaps one day we'll have a Chinese Catholic pope.

Yes the pope is catholic. The current pope is originally from Germany.

The Pope is Catholic. I am not sure from which country he hails.
The two (Catholic and Chinese) are not mutually exclusive.

Our current Pope is, in fact, a Chinese ninja-master trying to spread his word of the Church of Cheese and Hemp. And he's married to his sister Bob.

No. he converted. And BTW, Catholic is a religion. Chinese is a nationality. He could conceivably be both.
