Silence in the courtroom! We've gathered here today to deal with the case of cat vs chilli. How does the client plead? Not guilty? Of course they do. We all know that a cat would never admit to anything, let alone stealing some silly hooman food. How does the prosecution wish to proceed?
Ah, we see that the prosecution has some evidence to present - everyone please take a look at Exhibit A - the cat's paws. Notice the orange color of the normally white paws. As this cat has shown evidence of having more than one singular brain cell, we can deduce that this cat is not naturally orange, so the orange on the paws must be from tampering with the chilli!
Objection, your honor! This evidence is circumstantial at best. The defense claims that the orange was always there. This trial is rigged! Scroll down to see the final verdict below - with the whole cat community of the internet defending this funny feline, it could go either way!

This orange was always there, your honor. We can see in their feline family tree, one of their distant relatives was orange both in color and in nature. This paw color has been passed down for generations.
Innocent, innocent on all charges! This whole trial is a joke. How could you even accuse someone with such a cute face of such things?
