Her children think it’s hilarious, but Zoe Davies says she’s chagrined by her cat Pumpkin’s habit of stealing her neighbor’s underwear and depositing the haul in front of her door.
“This week alone I’ve had ten pairs of knickers (all the same size and make), two bras and two pairs of tights, said Davies, of Fairwater, Cardiff, who was interviewed by The Mirror. A video shows the small tabby cat dragging home a brightly colored pair of shorts.
She wrote a note to six neighbors, apologizing and offering to return any missing clothing items. “I really don’t know what to do. I thought about putting an honesty box outside – but I can’t put underwear outside my house.”
Family members typically discover the dainties in the morning, according to the report in The Mirror. Pumpkin the family cat usually alerts the household by meowing.
She prefers lingerie, but has an eye for practical items as well. “I’ve had T-shirts, socks, gardening gloves, tea towels, leggings, men’s pants. “One week she brought home a pair of knickers, then a few days later brought me the matching bra, I thought that was quite impressive”.
What an adorable cat, I just hope no one gets mad and does something mean to her.
