A cat attempting to smuggle drugs into a Russian prison was intercepted by guards. The feline wore two makeshift collars containing banned substances, according to Russian authorities cited by Euronews.
The incident took place at prison colony No. 17 in Nizhny Novgorod, where prison officers stopped the cat before it reached the facility. Russia’s Federal Service for the Execution of Penal Obligations (FSIN) reported the animal was equipped with textile collars concealing drugs intended for inmates.
Guards captured the cat before it could enter the prison. After removing the collars, a drug-detection dog was brought in to confirm the presence of drugs, which were then confiscated.
The Federal Penitentiary Service stated the cat was released unharmed following the intervention. Authorities did not disclose details about those responsible for the smuggling attempt, nor the type or quantity of drugs involved. This case is among several unusual methods used to smuggle items into Russian prisons.
