Cat Burglars
Is this why the term originated
Suspect One is known only as Denis:
Suspect Two is known as Theo:
You can see it in their eyes can't you!
They may look innocent enough but these two felines are responsible for a mini crime spree in the east of England.
Christmas is a gift for Theo, a three-year-old Siamese cross belonging to Rachael Drouet and Paul Edwards from Ipswich.
He is a seasoned cat burglar, regularly bringing home "treasures" from neighbours' houses.
Denis's penchant for purloining pants is matched by his love of shoes, paintbrushes and Barbie dolls.
Mrs Newman believes Denis climbs up neighbours' rotary washing lines and pulls items of clothing off before carrying them home through his cat flap.
Denis has successfully avoided being caught on film.
But this year, Theo has really got into the spirit of Christmas.
He has forsaken his usual diet of clothing, phone chargers and other cats' toys for a selection of Christmas decorations which his owners believe he is pilfering from their neighbours' trees.
