This is about the time of the year when our Cat Burglaries increase dramatically. The typical cat burglar will enter a home to burglarize it when the residents are home. Typically this is the rarest type of burglary.

Unfortunately, during the fall and spring months we see a huge increase in Cat Burglaries. This is because people are opening their windows and arcadia doors and enjoying the beautiful nights. Unfortunately, many people go to bed with their arcadia doors and/or windows still left open or unlocked.

This creates the perfect scenario for opportunistic thieves who know that folks are leaving their windows and doors open and makes for an easy entry into a residence. Everybody wants to enjoy our beautiful evenings, but can you please spread the word to remind folks to please shut and lock all windows and doors prior to retiring for the evening.

Most opportunistic thieves that specialize in this will usually move on once they realize the house is secure. This simple advice can protect residents and their property.
