Costa Rica Cat Drug Mule Nabbed With Crack, Marijuana In Midnight Prison Bust

Costa Rica cat drug mule captured in a midnight prison sting after authorities spotted the feline with 2 taped drug bundles—crack and marijuana—on its fur. The black-and-white cat’s attempted leap over La Reforma’s walls ended with guards unmasking a whiskered trafficker, and a “not again” from surprised staff.
Authorities at La Reforma prison intercepted the taped-up cat as it prowled the yard, foiling another bizarre smuggling plot. Feline drug mules have baffled Costa Rican guards before, but this 2-package bust adds a new twist to animal-assisted contraband: even the local dogs seemed puzzled by the night’s whiskered courier.
This isn’t the first narco-cat at La Reforma—previous attempts included birds and drones, but few had whiskers.
