** "Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer": The titular Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer are a duo of highly efficient cat burglars, committing various thefts without being caught. Whenever one of their crimes is discovered, people realize that one of the cats is responsible — and that there's nothing at all to be done about that.
** "Macavity: The Mystery Cat": [[DiabolicalMastermind Macavity]], aka the "Hidden Paw" or "The Napoleon of Crime" is an elusive master criminal, who is so notorious that other notable criminal cats such as Mungojerrie and Griddlebone are considered mere agents of his. Whenever one of his crimes is discovered and the investigators reach the scene, not only is Macavity not there, but he also has an alibi for whatever time it took place, with one or two to spare.
