Dusty the Klepto Kitty: a real cat burglar

By day, Dusty is an ordinary house cat. But when the sun goes down, Dusty’s alter-ego – Klepto Cat – springs into action.

A thief like no other
Over the years, Dusty has pinched more than 600 items, ranging from towels to small toys, bikinis, and even underwear. Some nights, Dusty is able to get as many as a dozen items, while on others, he has to make do with just one or two, according to his owners, Jean Chu and Jim Coleman of San Mateo, California.

In recent weeks, he’s become famous because he’s been featured in an episode of Animal Planet, and he appeared on the David Letterman Show. That definitely wasn’t a “stupid pet trick” because Dustry’s no dummy. He’s been stealing everything that’s not tied down from the neighbors for years!

What do you want to bet that he gets his own TV reality show?

Dusty's take for one night.
