This Cat Loves Stealing His Neighbors’ Shoes So Much, His Owner Even Created A Facebook Group To Return Them

Hunting, annoying the dog, out of all the careers this cat could have chosen, he devoted himself to a life of thievery. However, at this point, it looks like his owner is making amends for the feline’s crimes.

Earlier this month, BJ Ross from Altoona, Pennsylvania, created a Facebook group to address one of her pet cat Jordan’s dirty habits: stealing their neighbors’ shoes. According to WTAJ, the six-pound, black-and-white kitty is constantly going out during the night and returning home with loot in its jaws.

Ross hopes social media will help to return the footwear to its respective owners, but has also made Jordan famous and now the whole world knows about his shenanigans.

Here’s a video, hilariously shaming the criminal

After learning about the cat’s secret life, Jordan’s owner BJ Ross put a GPS tracker on him

According to Jordan’s GPS tracker, this committed burglar maintains a large territory that encompasses multiple visits to houses all over the neighborhood. This could be because Jordan likes to present his owner with complete pairs, but — being a cat – can only carry one shoe at a time. A lesser cat burglar might find this limiting, but not Jordan. Plus, he prepares for his nightly misadventures with lots of proactive napping.

He can walk up to 7-8 miles a night, plotting a new heist

My cat came home with a slice of pizza on two different occasions. I have no idea where he got it from!

This cat reminds me of the "Slippers Cat" story (Maca papučarica). It was a story we were told in kindergarten to make us keep our slippers and shoes tidy. Otherwise, the Slippers Cat will come and steal our footwear.

I'm curious how the cat manages to obtain so many shoes. Do all of these houses keep their shoes outside? Do they all have unsecured doggie doors? If I were a burglar, I might just follow this cat around to find the easy marks.
