In the heart of Kentucky, a furry culprit is making waves as the unofficial Mr. Grinch of Christmas! Thanks to some sneaky nighttime surveillance footage, Walter the cat’s festive antics have taken TikTok by storm.

“It’s me. Hi. I’m the problem it’s me,” fittingly croons Taylor Swift in the background of one of Walter’s clips. And boy, does it sum up the situation perfectly.

Running Walter’s TikTok account, his human companion reveals the true extent of his holiday mischief. Despite the angelic white patches on his shoulders dubbed “angel wings,” Walter’s no saint!

“My cat’s a night owl,” jokes the TikToker, sharing a slew of clips captured by their security camera. Each video catches Walter sauntering past, always with something clutched in his mischievous jaws.

One recent clip, viewed over 8.6 million times, showcases Walter’s mission to relocate all things Christmas upstairs while his human snoozes. From ornaments to twinkling lights, nothing is safe from his thieving paws. He’s even been spotted hauling a snowman!

“Walter’s clearly in the holiday spirit,” quips his owner, pondering if he’s eager to deck his own halls or just hoard all the festive flair for himself.

TikTokers are eating up Walter’s shenanigans with gusto. “Nice to see him do some redecorating,” quips one viewer. Another adds, “At least he’s doing some chores—mine just go wild at night!”

Many can’t help but draw parallels to the infamous Grinch. “I don’t think Walter likes Christmas,” muses one user. But some offer a more positive spin: “He’s just spreading some holiday cheer!”

But where does Walter stash his loot? Another video reveals him lounging amidst his plunder, creating his own cozy Christmas corner. And judging by his nightly escapades, it seems his collection is only growing!
