An Amazon delivery driver was caught on camera snatching a California family’s cat from right off their doorstep.

The incident, captured in Ring camera footage, showed the carrier drop a box at the home in Bakersfield before picking up feline, named “Junie.”

A second angle showed the driver walking away from the property to an Amazon delivery truck parked in front of the house.

Brenda Wilson spoke about her beloved Junie, who she wishes would have been more defensive around the carrier.

“Maybe he just really thought she was the most chill cat ever. And was just like, ‘hey, let me test it’….you could see as he got closer she meowed at him, stranger danger,” Wilson told KGET.

“I kind of wish she would’ve fought back. But that’s just really not in her nature.”

The family, who has had Junie since 2022, said they just want her their sweet cat back home.

“They could just drop her off in the driveway, she knows what to do,” Wilson said. “She’ll come straight to the garage, get inside the house.”

The Kern County Sheriff’s office told The California Post that “it appears to be a theft of a cat” and an investigation is ongoing.

Brenda has since posted an update on her Facebook account claiming the driver had lived with her neighbors and that he and his spouse are under the impression that Junie is their male cat. 

But Wilson said she has proof that they’ve had Junie longer than the couple lived there and she shared photos of the female cat with her litter of kittens.

“We just want Junie home and we won’t follow through with the charges,” Wilson wrote. “We are not sure where they are now and our neighbors don’t know either.”

An Amazon spokesperson told the California Post that the driver works for a “Delivery Service Partner.”

“We’re looking into it and working with law enforcement as they investigate,” the spokesperson said.
