Covert Operations & Espionage

Rappel. Infiltrate. Shed.

Tuition: $6,800 or 24 easy payments of $312.

An eight-week field program preparing cats for careers in intelligence gathering, facility infiltration, and long-form surveillance. Students will complete a capstone infiltration of an undisclosed facility that is definitely not the Spirit Halloween next door.

This course is offered in partnership with the Blackbook Division, about which we will not elaborate.

What You'll Learn

  • Enter a room without being observed, even by the cat already in it
  • Rappel from a second-story windowsill (first story if risk-averse)
  • Use a laser pointer as a signaling device, not as a distraction
  • Compose and decode messages in a cipher of soft footsteps
  • Leave no trace except, of course, fur
  • Identify and avoid the dog
