A cat burglar has been identified in Swindon, England, — a cat that steals stuffed animals from homes that is! A 2-year-old cat named Frankie sneaks into neighborhood homes and brings plush treasures through the cat flap of his owner Julie Bishop’s home, she tells the Daily Mail. “Frankie looks very pleased with himself when he comes in with these presents,” Bishops says. “About 15 of them are all the same leopard. He doesn’t really play with them. He dumps them down and goes out looking for something else.”

Now, overloaded with a collection of toy hamburgers and teddy bears, Bishop is doing what she feels is right: plastering her town with posters to try and find rightful owners of the toys. Turns out that Frankie may be part of a cat burgling gang! Earlier this year, another black cat named Cwtch owned by Rachel Meyrick of London, made news for bringing stuffed gifts home.

    Now what intrigues me is how bold-faced Frankie is sitting there posing for the press with other people’s property – looking proud of himself. Cat burglar or not, crime does pay. Frankie just sent up his net worth on the feline market. Great one Ludmila.

    This is the funniest story I’ve heard in my life.
    I wonder is it a result of a lack of mice in London or a craven raven syndrome?
    Both seem suspicious to say the least.

    Thank you Ludmila! What a funny story–wouldn’t it be fascinating to hear him tell us why he does this. Especially the 15 leopards!!

    Bear hugs, Sarsam

    Dear Ludmila,
    how funny! A cat burglar or even better a gang. Now you might have an idea what Ryzik is doing when he is off! Could you imagine he is a member of the gang in a German affiliate?
    Thanks for this entertainment.
    BH, caren
