It was said to have been caught in the act recently at a fishing pond in south-western Chinese city Chongqing, according to reports.
Footage filmed by an onlooker shows the ginger cat standing on its hind legs while carefully reaching for the bucket behind the angler who was focusing on his fishing rod.

The hungry animal was so concentrated on its food that it failed to realise that it was already spotted by the angler who suddenly turned around.
Amused by the feline’s behaviour, the man remained silent while following the animal’s every move.
The cat was caught off guard and scurried away when it looked up and saw the smiling angler who then waved his hand to scare it away.
The furry thief’s hilarious attempt amused tens of thousands of social media users who joked that the cat looked like it had done this before.

One viewer wrote: ‘Look at its body, I think it’s a re-offender.’
Another commenter took the moggie’s side and said: ‘Its determination is worthy of reward! Just give it one [fish]!’
The ginger cat apparently is not the only feline that likes to break rules.
Another cat was escorted off a train in China earlier this month after the furry passenger was spotted ‘travelling without a ticket’.
The feline, believed to be a stray, sneaked onto a high-speed train, seemingly trying to hitch a free ride.
After being caught red-handed, the animal is seen trotting on its hind legs with tiny steps as it was carried out of the carriage by a railway officer.
