Currently,

s = pd.Series(['a', 'b', 'c'])
s.str.cat([1, 2, 3])

yields

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "C:\Users\Axel Obermeier\eclipse-workspace\pddev\pandas\core\strings.py", line 2222, in cat
    res = str_cat(data, others=others, sep=sep, na_rep=na_rep)
  File "C:\Users\Axel Obermeier\eclipse-workspace\pddev\pandas\core\strings.py", line 111, in str_cat
    cats = [sep.join(tup) for tup in tuples]
  File "C:\Users\Axel Obermeier\eclipse-workspace\pddev\pandas\core\strings.py", line 111, in <listcomp>
    cats = [sep.join(tup) for tup in tuples]
TypeError: sequence item 1: expected str instance, int found

IMO, this should be improved to have a better error message, and shallower stack trace.
