    About this ebook

    Of course, you also had to be nimble to be a good burglar, and Cat had just the right genetic pool for his chosen vocation. Tall and skinny with double-jointed fingers, he could easily claim those out-of-reach window ledges, and he had an uncanny ability to coil his body into small openings. He was also very light-footed, which often made for a soft landing when those quick exits were called for, especially after some random family dog decided to wake up and earn its keep.
