Well, well, well… what have we got here? A cat burglar trying to flea the scene of the crime? I smell a rat. Looks like we’ve collared another one, Sarge. We’ve been tailing her for a while now and she’s been busier than a one-eyed cat watching two mouse holes or a three-legged cat in a dry sand box.
You think that you’re the cat’s whiskers, eh? With your smug look, looking like the cat that swallowed the canary. Well the game is up, Puss in Boots. Your gig is finally over. There will be no more kitty littering from you. The cat is now well and truly out of the bag.
Hey, stop pussyfooting around and arrest this cool kitten. Read this sourpuss her rights! She has the right to remain silent. Oh purrfect, cat got her tongue has it…? Well, there’s more than one way to skin a cat.
Hello Kitty, you’re nicked! We’re taking out the trash. We’re gonna take you downtown and you’ll be catnapping in a cell so small you won’t have enough room to swing a cat. That’ll put a cat among the pigeons. Now your looking as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs.

Has Hello Kitty been arrested for soliciting out the front of Bank of America, trying to rob the bank or a felineous assault? Or has she finally been pinged for running guns.
