A female cat burglar went on an Upper East Side looting spree, scaling fire escapes and slinking into windows to rip off TVs, cameras, iPods and other electronics from a string of buildings — including her own, authorities said.
Celeste Ricciardi, 28 — who has two cats — allegedly ripped off four of her neighbors at her East 73rd Street building during the two-month spree. Sources said she hit three other buildings nearby beginning in August.
The spree came to an end on Oct. 13, when Ricciardi, 28, was caught by an eagle-eyed super on East 82nd Street, sources said.
When asked what she was doing standing on the fire escape, Ricciardi claimed she was about to walk the tenants’ dog.
Ricciardi climbed down and started walking away, but the super followed and called 911.
Cops arrested Ricciardi, who was allegedly carrying two envelopes of heroin.
She was released from jail yesterday after her family posted $30,000 bail.
