It's 10 p.m., do you know where your cats are?

German police called to a break-in at an apartment in the northern town of Itzstedt found the intruder still on the premises and hiding under a kitchen cabinet.

The "cat burglar" had somehow crawled into the ground-floor of the apartment, broken window blinds, torn down drapes and trashed furniture.

We're talking the 4-legged variety here. I thought it was mighty quiet downstairs last night.
