Sneaker cat

Adj. - Sneaky - marked by deception; underhanded, underhand, corrupt, crooked - not straight; dishonest or immoral or evasive.

Ever notice when your animal has done something bad or is about to do something bad they trot away quickly, sinking really low to the ground like they are invisible? They are trying to blend in to the carpet so you won't notice.

It makes the bad deed more obvious.

We call it "low sinking" or "a sneaker cat".

They think they are sneaky and getting away with it.   I can see her out of the corner of my eye trying to slither away inconspicuously - GUILTY!!  

I always know when the cat has clawed the couch, gotten into the garbage, beat up on the other cat or generally done or almost did what they knew they were not supposed to do.

They act veeeeery heavy like a dead-weight-sack-of-useless-hair-that-sometimes-hisses.  

"There is no cat here, now piss-off!"
