Tabby Cat Stealing Doritos Literally Makes Off in a Getaway Car

If you thought dogs were the only domesticated animals able to steal, you're sorely mistaken. In fact, if there's one domesticated animal species that has the real stealth and desire to steal things, it's cats!

That's not just slander, it's true. If you don't believe me, just take a look at this video from Thursday, April 25th. Not only does this cat manage to steal a bag of Doritos, but he steals a car, too! They'll never catch him now:

Loki Does Tricks, sure, but he also Commits Crimes. You an't even eat those, dude! What are you doing?!

Loki is a TikTok star. He has managed to get himself about 350,000 followers on TikTok - and a whopping 525,000 on Instagram. Both platforms get to see his antics all the time, and they're always hilarious: from stealing chips to demanding to wear his silly little costumes all the time, there's always something he wants. 

Loki actually made it to the final round of this year's Cadbury Bunny contest - he was almost the face of the famous Creme Eggs brand for the season! In the end, he ended up losing out to a raccoon named Louie, but it was a really close call. Since he didn't win that prize money, apparently, Loki had to turn to a life of crime. He's lucky he's adorable!

How to Stop Cats From Stealing

Unfortunately, cats will always find something to steal, and it's not their fault that they do it. It's in an animal's nature to build a "nest" of sorts, especially during pregnancy. If they start to feel like resources are scarce, they may start hoarding their things in a hiding place. It's a concerning behavior, but there are ways to help. You can try:

1. Locking things up (like chips, small packaged goods, fruits, etc).
2. Keep cats out of rooms that are unsupervised.
3. Redirect them when you notice them getting ready to steal. 
4. Offering them more enrichment. 

If a cat is stealing things, it might be because they don't have enough things to be interested of their own. Shiny things and things that crinkle are very enticing to a cat, especially a bored one. To combat this, make sure you're devoting time to playing with them and try switching up their toys every once in a while to keep things interesting for them!

Loki does this all the time: there are many videos of him sneaking into the cabinets or onto the counters to steal snacks. Locks on your cabinets may help prevent grubby paws from sliding inside. But honestly, I'm glad Loki's house doesn't have those - this is so entertaining to watch!
