Has the mystery of missing socks finally been solved?

“The owners of a cat with a passion for socks are leafleting their neighbours in the Loughborough area to see if they are missing any.

Henry, who is now a year old, has taken at least 57 socks although it is still unclear whether he gets them from washing lines or people's houses.”

- I've often heard people complain about missing socks (touch of ocd here, so no lost socks as they are all folded into pairs when putting them away after laundering ), and seeing this story I wonder if we might finally have got to the bottom of the case of the missing socks :

Ha ha ha RG22 - perhaps we're onto something here - it's been cats pinching socks all along .

Not in this house.....it's Mr B who pinches my socks! They turn up later in the laundry basket with holes in the toes from his big feet Bigfeet.

Albert our cat is far too interested in creating nests from t-shirts to waste his time on socks.

Nice story lol

I always buy socks of exactly the same colour now, so it doesn't matter of they get mixed up, as they're all the same anyway.

For anybody missing socks they're usually stuck to the drum in the washing machine.

They'd be more likely to think it if you were called Bigpenis though!!
