Cat Nap

Cat Burglar Caught Napping on Job

A Dutch cat burglar was caught napping on a couch during a nocturnal heist and arrested, police said on Saturday.

The burglar curled up on a couch for a nap in the Rotterdam home he was robbing and was found snoozing by the owners' son, who held the 26-year-old thief while his parents called police.

"It's not very smart to fall asleep in the house you are trying to burgle," a Rotterdam police spokesman said.

I don't have anything to say about this; I just couldn't resist the title.
