Yup! My little Zena's middle name is Bandita because whe will steal whatever she can; mostly shoes and socks! Incorrigible little girl she is!

When DH & I married I had my beloved cool cat, Marshall, (LOVED him, RIP).
Anyway, one night we were eating chicken wings at the coffee table & watching a movie. Well at one point we saw this little paw come up from under the table & start patting around to find a wing. I tell you...it was so so funny!
Marshall gave me 18 years of the best love.

I'm not sure which of my dogs does this (I think it might be Tank), but one of my husband's slippers keeps getting moved from where he leaves them on one side of the living room to the other side of the room. We never see them actually moving it, but it's so funny! It's always the same slipper, and it's always moved to the exact same spot. It's never chewed on, just moved.

Too cool. Bluebelle loves shoes! any kind, the smellier the better. Not chewing, just hording and licking (eugh). DH says she like shes as much as mummy (which is a lot).

I don't think you have a klepto, I think you have a prankster! lol.

Bria · 08-08-2009, 01:58 PM

Yes this is so Bria when something is missing we don't even look around the house for it. cause it can only be in ONE place under the bed cause Bria stole it!!

and you know when she has something she shouldn't cause she hauls butt with whatever it is she stole!!

LOL! That's too funny!

Stella isn't allowed in our bedroom unless we're there (a futile attempt to save the carpet from being turned into a giant wee-wee pad) but if we accidentally leave the bedroom door open she'll stealthily run back and forth from her toy bin to the bedroom, bringing each toy into the bedroom one by one. She's not satisfied until she has all 15 or so toys in the bedroom.

Also, when I was changing the shower curtain liner a few weeks ago, she managed to steal 8 of the 12 shower curtain rings from me and hide them in her favorite spot in the bedroom (under my nightstand), and I've still only found 6 of the 8. Who knows where she put the other 2?! There's a picture of her in my album with one of the shower curtain rings...she has the "door knocker" thing going on there too! I let her keep one of them because it's the perfect size chew toy for her and one of her favorites.

Suzi taught herself to take stuff out of everybodys pockets . I have no idea how she learned this neat trick

She is so good at it too. Once anyone sits down , it's on. I have to be careful. She loves Tums, papertowels, tissue, candy wrappers are her most favorite. Not only that, she runs away with her prize

now our little puppy has learned to run away with a forbiddin item in her mouth too ! Except she bites when it gets taken away from her . Between the both of them their is never a dull moment ! I learned long ago to place my purse up high out of reach from these two little rascals . I do not trust them . everytime we come back grocery shopping they have a field day in the trying to sift through the bags. It's my fault on this one, because I usually bring them home a treat!

That alone has taught me to NEVER buy a purse without a zipper

And ZIP it! haha!

We find ALL of our missing belongings (keys, kids toys, socks, ect.) Under the left side of the couch. Lil stinker!

We find OUR stuff, but still cant find where she hides HER stuff

cynsir · 08-08-2009, 11:26 PM

Yes, Misty is a klepto. Mostly she grabs thinks from my purse and puts it in the middle of the living room and lays on it until I notice. She's been teaching Cassie our 12 week old Maltese how to steal my clothes and leave it laying on the floor right before someone comes over. Guess which article of clothing is their favorite.

MsFamousHepburn · 08-09-2009, 01:05 AM

Hello, my name is Mr. Xavier Maverick...and I am a kleptomaniac. My Momma added "Maverick" to my name to be sure everyone would be aware of my mischievous ways.

I like to "borrow" anything I can from Momma's purses, and I know that the bigger they are, the better for me! My sister, Sasha, sometimes gets in on the action with me...like when we used to dig for chewing gum. Momma was very upset when we stole an entire pack of gum, but I don't know why! I even left the box and wrappers together for her. I've not been able to score any gum since.

I've moved on to bigger things anyway...like underwear,socks,jewelry,ponytail holders, and of course ANY and ALL food that is anywhere within my reach...

Better go...I think I just spotted that silly kitty of mine playing with MY goods!!!
