POLICE dogs have a very easy to understand place in the law enforcement community – whether it’s for drug detection, or tracking, people know what they do.
A concept that seems to make a little less sense, though, is police cats.
Here’s Tia, from New Zealand, demonstrating a police cat’s less important but still very necessary qualities.
The cat works for Wellington District Police, and is apparently top notch when it comes to admin.
“Tia doesn’t come to work very often. Our human officers work so much faster so she tends to stay home most of the time. And she knows our dogs are just a little bit better at some police work than cats,” a spokesman told the New Zealand Herald.
“We appreciate and promote diversity in the NZ Police human and animal ranks – cats, dogs and guinea pigs alike.”
If that isn’t enough police cat for your day, meet Snickers, one of New Zealand police’s other wonderful cats.
