People tend to swoon at cute kitties and their heart-melting meows.

One such clip posted on TikTok shows the carefully curated process of stealing carried out by a cat that has left netizens thinking twice before melting at those adorable kitty eyes.

Shot through a hidden cam, the clip describes that the owner was regularly waking up to open cabinets and fridge so they set up a camera to bust the bandit. Turns out the felony was committed by none other than the furry feline himself. As the clip commences, Jack is seen opening the cabinet with careful precision just like a human standing on its hind paws. Interestingly, with the opening of the cabinet, the distance between the fridge became much more accessible and we all know what follows next.
