Cat Burglar

A cat, which we have to name as Raffles (or is that Ruffles), was arrested breaking in to a prison in Brazil ..... he (or she, the sex is not discussed), was carrying contraband goods for prisoners strapped to its body with tape.

Raffles The Brazilian Cat Burglar

Now anyone who has had a cat will know that they are not the easiest of animals to control or train, so one has to applaud the skills of which ever old lag trained the cat to break in (after presumably breaking out), and carry the goods as well. The cat was apprehended crossing the main prison gate, so the only thing the lags forgot to do was teach it how to be sneaky, but at least it turned out to not be a stool pigeon.

A prison spokesperson was quoted by local paper Estado de S. Paulo as saying: "It's tough to find out who's responsible for the action as the cat doesn't speak." ..... statements like that always give you paws for thought .....
