When most police officers take on a partner, it’s typically a human partner but sometimes may be a canine. What most police officers don’t do is take a kitten on as a partner.

Apparently this police officer found a kitten behind a dumpster and decided to take it in. Now the police officer and his cat are patrolling the streets to keep people (and felines) safe.
