A Parklands resident has outed her cat as a neighbourhood thief.

Nic McLeod posted photos on social media of her naughty cat and the items he stole from neighbours.

She edited the photo of her cat behind jail bars.


Among the items include slippers, tea-towels, baby clothes, kitchen cloths, socks, underwear and gardening gloves.

Nic wrote “my sincere apologies to everyone in Parklands my cat visit – I do try and return as many items as possible.”


The owner posted an address online where residents can collect ‘stolen’ items from a container.
