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
