Town Is Missing its Clothing as 4-Pawed Cat Burglar Pilfers Items from Neighbors and Brings Them Home

nnThere are cat burglars, then there are cat-burglars.nnTaboo, a 12-year-old black and white resident of West Yorkshire in England, has stolen gloves, socks, underpants, and shoes from properties across the area.nnHer owner, Sandra Danskin has now been forced to share regular pictures of the loot on social media so residents can reclaim their stolen items.nnBut Danskin, who works night shifts, said sneaky Taboo is rarely caught and has become a master of her criminal trade.nn”Whenever I come home from my shift there are all sorts of things waiting for me, either dragged in through the cat flap or left on the drive,” Danskin told the British news media service SWNS. “This morning I had four pairs of socks and a pair of underpants. She loves bringing back items of clothing like that, but also we’ve had a mop head and kitchen rolls.”nn“We even had half a dozen eggs once, still in their box, but all broken. We think she must have taken them off someone’s doorstep when the milkman dropped them off.”nnNeighbors have joked that they changed the locks of their houses, and that Danskin should figure out how to train her little thief to discern worthless goods from high-end goods like Rolexes.nnSandra believes that Taboo steals clothes from people’s washing lines or sneaks into their houses if their doors are left open. The little Lupin has only been caught once so far when a neighbor spotted her trying to take a T-shirt from his clothes dryer in the kitchen.nnSIMILAR TROUBLEMAKERS: Cat Who Sneaks into School Gets His Class Photo Taken – And Portrait Packet is Sent Home to Momnn“If she brings back a sock she will always go back and get the matching one so there’s a pair,” Danskin said. “I have a box full of stuff she’s brought for me and every now and then I go on Facebook and post a photo of it all so people can claim it.”nnTaboo was originally a house cat and belonged to Sandra’s daughter, Gemma. Eventually, Gemma could not bear the kleptomaniac cat any longer, and Taboo went to live with Sandra and her three other cats.nnTHE BRITS LOVE THEIR CATS: England Team Players Adopt ‘Big Dave’ the Stray Cat Who Made Himself a Social Media Star Like a MascotnnNow the cat burglar loves to let her current owner know when she’s pulled off a successful heist by emitting a signature howl.nn“Whenever she gets something she sits outside and makes this high-pitched whining noise to let me know,” says Danskin. “I’ve tried talking to her about it but she doesn’t change her ways. Underwear, socks, shoes… she just keeps bringing them.”nnTHE OTHER SIDE OF THE LAW: ‘Cat-ching Criminals’ Just Became a Lot Easier Thanks to New Method for Analyzing Cat Hairnn“I can’t tell you how many pairs of gardening gloves she’s brought me. I’ve never heard of a cat doing anything like this before, and she shows no signs of stopping.”nnEvidently, she’s never heard of Charlie, the Klepto-Cat of Bristol. Charlie became famous some years ago for stealing toys from the houses around her owner’s home in very similar circumstances.
