I had a jewelry thief cat once, and you knew she was up to something when she’d streak past you 2" from the ground, usually with a bracelet in her mouth.

Untouchable, these cats.

The problem, as he saw it, was that I was on the wrong floor of the house. And, even more gallingly, was ignoring his repeated, vocal requests to go upstairs to the office (second bedroom on the east side of the house, where the sun was). So, clearly he needed to escalate the situation in order to impress upon me the gravity of the situation!

Borderline criminal, in fact.

I had a “cat burglar” once, and she’d drop her purloined stash into the piano. The piano tuner has a really long pair of tweezers. Once a year he’d retrieve … stuff. Her teeth marks still grace the music stand.

We had an embezzler cat. Mr.BR would empty his pockets of loose change and bills and put them on the dresser. Later we would see the cat running around the house with a $20 bill hanging from his mouth.

Congratulations! That face will make it hard to say no. They are persuasive that way.
