[b]What a charming little rogue!
You're right, keep cats inside! They should patch over that hole they have in their house!

I pity the poor neighbor who keeps replacing their leopard toy, only to have it repeatedly appropriated by Frankie. Maybe he's part squirrel?

I honestly think the leopard toy one is funny!
When we first built the cat's porch, or playpen as we call it, the roomie tied a toy to the door knob out there and Rygel brought it inside. She took it out and retied it and with in minutes Rygel had it inside again....
I'd bet Rygel would be going for toys if he had access - and rats wouldn't have a chance!

The leopard toy looks like a happy meal toy. About 6 months ago they were giving away cute stuffed animals. I got a Silvester and a panda.

awww frankie is so cute 
our cats do things for a reason. i can't really think of anything that my cats did for no reason. the reason might not be apparent to us, but there is one. in frankie's case, maybe frankie thinks his owner is bored. that's why he is bringing back all those toys for her. who knows, frankie might stop doing so if the owner stop looking bored.

hehehe , hehhe , wait one more giggle , hehhe. My hubby and I thought this is just the cutest thing , although the mother that has to keep replacing her child's toy , maybe , because a fretful child is having a fit might be a lil upset . lol. What is really cool , is that I just befriended a feral cat outside and he could be Frankie's twin . I finally got him to take food from me , and he will sit at my feet . I think I have been adopted again . I fear to bring him inside because of disease and my other cats , and I think he maybe happier outside. He looks about 9 or 10 years old , due to all the grey lil hairs he is getting . I named him Misha.

I've got 4 black cats, one is getting white wiskers, we were told she was 10 when we got her almost 8 years ago, the others are 11 and 6, and Frankie looks kindda like Scamp and Nef, the 11 yr old and one of the 6 yr olds.
We also have a Frankie, he's a siamese I named Frankenkitty because he came with a big stitched up injury on his sholder, now you'd never know he had it, he's all pretty now.

My cat would play with those toys. Hard to believe, maybe Frankie thinks about those toys as his prove of his hunting skills....
I keep my cat at home and I don't have any pet entries for not invites guests.
Frankie is cute and he proves that animals can collect toys like people do...
I have many toys for my dogs, but they play only with new toys....

Isn't he cute????? And, so proud of his conquests!! I suspect that someone's giving him those tigers (leopards?), though. No one in their right mind would keep replacing them over and over and over again. He does seem fixated on them, though. But, he's just adorable!

Hi ElicBxn,
Well that is a very cute "cat" burglar! I must say and very clever with it, but how is he getting in to the neighbours houses? do they just leaves their windows open all the time and what happens if they have cats as well, just curious.

LOL What a kitty.
I wonder what that cat is thinking?
How on earth is he getting all those toys? Do the neighbors also have cat doors? Maybe he's making the rounds of other peoples houses. My moms old cat used to do that. She went to a neighbors house once and found her cat sleeping on the sofa. Cats can be naughty little creatures.
My kitties don't go out so they can't steal stuff.

awww--Frankie looks like my Pyewacket except he has a bit of white on his chest. Well at least it's just a pile of soft toys...could be worse....could be a pile up of mice!!

Ya know, I kindda thought that might be a tag, but I guess it could be a white spot. All 4 of my black cats don't have any white, but Scamp has kind of a lighter undercoat. Some of Sassy's wiskers have turned white, we think she's around 17, we were told she was ten when we got her and we'll have had her 8 years this next April 1st.
But its Rygel, the White Eared Cat, who would be the one that brought home the goods....

frankie is funny. and he poses well with his toys he had stolen. it looks like he is modeling with his treasures that he found, proud of his findings, saying "Look at me! I'm rich from other kitties' toys!"
after he does time at kitty prison, he should get into acting and modeling.
my cat is indoor. i dont think he likes other cats' stuff. if he smells another cat on a toy, he would ignore it. he prefer new and clean stuff. my pets, late and current, tend to be spoiled.
