This drug-running cat was snared by prison guards – as it attempted to traffick bags of POT into a jail in Moldova.

Staff at the facility in Pruncul became suspicious after the grey and white  critter was seen regularly nipping in and out of the building through a hole in  the perimeter fence.

Its over-sized decorative collar turned out to contain drugs and the hunt is  now on to find the crook who trained it.

Video footage of the feline being frisked was posted online by Moldova’s  justice ministry.

It is not the first time a cat has been used for the purposes of smuggling  behind the former Iron Curtain.

Prison warders recently caught a cat climbing a fence at a jail in Syktyvkar,  Russia, in June, – with mobile phones and chargers taped to its body.
