I know that the FBI has a lot of police dogs but you never had a police cat. My cat, Butch, should be the first Police cat. He is very tough and not scared of anything - even dogs. If you had a police cat like Butch, you would fool all the crooks because they wouldn’t suspect that a cat is working for the FBI. If you want to try Butch, write to me.

Even in a support role, the importance of having a good department feline shouldn't be underestimated. Baxter County Sheriff's Office lost their dear "Cornbread" several years ago. That lovable l'il purr machine is still missed.
