> child cat
Do you mean a kitten or did you mean "child that"? I can't stop laughing, despite your loss of wallet.

I had the same reaction. Then realized he meant a pint-sized cat burglar scaled the wall, snuck through a window, and lifted a wallet. To me this is extreme considering it would be far easier to be a pickpocket or scam artist.

I think they meant that a child (noun) cat-burgled (verb). https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/cat_burglar
On the first night there a child cat burgled one of our wallets. He scaled the side of the building and came in through an open window. We caught him in the act, but he was too quick and scampered out the way he came. When we complained to the host (the pharmacy downstairs, really) they asked if we wanted a NEW apt in a different building or another apartment in that one (basically two apts for a week for the price of two nights in a hotel)
Now when people talk about Air B&B, I think of courier dentistry: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kX_GfxGIWQs&t=1s
