The raid seemed to be well-planned, the door to the cat-shed had been pried open and two crates were missing. Items of clothing, a pair of pants and a bra, were also found at the crime scene, which the cat thief had likely used as traction aids under car tires after getting her vehicle stuck in the driveway.
Police asks people to be on the lookout for the missing felines.
