You've heard of "cat burglars?' Here's a twist on that one...it seems a cat is in custody after being caught red-pawed trying to smuggle items in to a prison in Brazil. 

When captured the cat was carrying two saws and two drills that would drill through concrete. It also had a cell phone, charger and three batteries.taped to it.

The small black and white cat was a regular site around the prison area, and was thought to live within the facility. It was reported that many prisoners families had taken the cat home, only to have it return. Obviously someone figured out that it might be an easy way to get contraband into the prison. Almost worked too. Missed by a whisker!
