Watch: London cat sneaks into neighbor's house, eats dog's dinner
I've watched a lot of security footage in my time, but there's something special about a cat that walks into a stranger's house and eats the dog's dinner while the dog just stands there. The dog had every advantage, size, teeth, the moral high ground, and he still let a cat take his food. That's the real story here.
This connects to the long tradition of cats treating the world as their personal buffet. Dogs have owners, cats have staff. But breaking into a neighbor's house specifically to eat the dog's food is a level of disrespect we haven't seen since the great raccoon raids of the suburbs.
I'd want to know what happened next. Did the cat come back? Is the dog now traumatized? Did the owners install a cat-proof flap? The footage ends too soon. For now, I'm just glad someone finally caught a cat in the act. The dog may have lost his dinner, but he gave the rest of us a cautionary tale about leaving doors open.
