24 Funny Pictures of Cats Caught Cold-Pawed in the Fridge Pretending They Don’t Know Who Nabbed the Nuggets

Open the fridge, and poof! Your cat appears out of nowhere, eyes locked on the deli drawer like it's the Holy Grail of treats. They're just curious. Okay fine… they're hungry.

Fridge raids are basically the feline version of a treasure hunt. Your cat isn't just being nosy, they're on a mission. Is there rotisserie chicken? A lonely slice of turkey? Half a salmon from Tuesday? That door opens, and suddenly it's catventure time.

Of course, they pretend they're just "exploring." But we know better. It's all about the forbidden feast. And heaven forbid you try to close the door. Meowgic powers activated. They instantly become 300% heavier and completely liquid, wedging themselves into impossible crevices like fridge-shaped puddings.

And don't even think about leftovers. Once they've sniffed the shelves, they consider everything in there purroperty of the cat. You? Just the sous chef.

So if you spot little paw prints on the cheese drawer or a tail poking out behind the yogurt, congrats. You've got yourself a refrigerpurr raider. Guard your snacks accordingly.
