You’ve heard of cat burglars, but have you heard about cat smugglers Well apparently,that's the latest thing.

A not so sneaky cat was caught smuggling two cell phones into a Russian prison. Officials believe at least one inmate convinced an outsider to strap the phones, plus extra batteries and chargers, to the cat and send it crawling over the prison’s fence. The animal was busted before he could make the delivery.

Prison officials said this was the first time they’d ever seen such a thing. However back in January, something like that happened at a Brazilian prison. A cat was caught smuggling tools to the inmates inside.

Time for prisoners to come up with a new plan. The cat’s out of the bag on this one!
