Dogs will eat anyThing, but cats are usually pretty picky hunters. They stick to stalking birds, squirrels, frogs, that kind of Thing. Since they don't eat their kill, they bring it home to their humans. (In case they're hungry, I guess?) But Brigit, a tonkinese cat living in New Zealand, hunts mens' underwear.

But, says owner Sarah Nathan, "She's got really specific taste." Brigit likes boxer briefs. And socks. Especially striped socks. And Cat brand socks. In 2 months, she's racked up a high "kill" list with over 50 socks and 11 pairs of underwear. Oh, and she prefers to bag her socks in pairs. No mismatches for Brigit.

Though Sarah has put up flyers and posted pictures of the cat burglar's haul on Facebook, no one has come forward to claim their unmentionables yet. However, lots of other people have shared similar stories of feline hunters with odd tastes. But none so specific or prolific. Though her owner has tried, nothing stops this cat from her nightly rounds. "Brigit is just more dedicated to her hunt," said Sarah.

Maybe she is, but here's another Thing: everyone knows you can't train a cat. So the people of Hamilton, NZ will just have to keep an eye on their undies.

See you next week,
