‘Purr-petrators’: Eight kittens and their mother trip home alarm in Myrtle Beach
Alarm at Myrtle Beach Residence Leads to Cat Burglars
In the early hours of Tuesday, authorities in Myrtle Beach got an unexpected surprise. Responding to an alarm activation at a residence on 12th Avenue South, the Myrtle Beach Police Department was greeted by nine feline culprits. Instead of intruders, they were met by eight kittens and their mother, prompting the police department to label them as ‘purr-petrators.’
Upon investigation, it appeared that the feline family was merely in search of a new home. “After a few ‘interviews,’ it turns out they’re just looking for a good home,” the police department shared on its social media.

According to the responding authorities, all the cats found on the scene are in good health. The mother cat and her eight kittens are safe and are currently being taken care of. This strange yet heartening incident has caught the attention of local residents, with many applauding the police department for their compassionate handling of the situation.
