Police to employ cats for security
A police station in England is considering using cats on the force after receiving a letter from a young girl.
Eliza Adamson-Hopper, 5 inquired on why the police force used dogs and not cats.
Inspector Richie Allen, who works with Durham's dog support unit, told The Guardian that the force would actually consider adding cats.
"I can confirm the force is looking into recruiting what we believe to be the first U.K. police cat," he said.
"Their duties and responsibilities have not yet been agreed but if nothing else they will become the force mascot."
The little girl's mother Cheryl Adamson told the BBC that the letter was a result of her daughter's overall inquisitive nature.
She added that her daughter was delighted to receive a response not only from chief Barton, but also inspector Allen who sent them a calendar and invited the young girl to the station.
