Keith Griffin was arrested for possession of child pornography, and he blamed it on his cat. The Jensen Beach, Florida resident was busted with over a thousand child-porn images on his computer.

Keith Griffin faces ten counts of possessing child pornography and is held on $250,000 bail.

"Keyboard cat" takes on a whole new meaning.

According to a sheriff's report Friday, Griffin told investigators that his cat jumped on the computer keyboard while he was downloading music. He said he had left the room and found "strange things" on his computer when he returned.

I'm avoiding any "kitty porn" jokes here, because child pornography is a pretty serious issue.

Yeah, that cat was seriously busy tap-tap-tapping away at his keyboard to get over 1,000 images...

The Sheriff should find the cat a new home.  This guy sounds like he's missing quite a few neurons if he thinks people would buy the-cat-types-away-the URL-then-hits-d/l excuse.

I think they should arrest the cart or at least fine it...

We have a ferret called Milo, the little bugger is into everything and on occasion he runs across the keyboard when I am working to get attention, the only thing that happens is I lose my work at the time he has scrambled across the keyboard, as for his internet skills, well................. was it not said a million monkeys typing on a million typewriters...........typing for a 100 years could publish the entire works of Shakespeare. What makes this guy think his Cat could do in an instant a million monkeys or Milo could achieve?
