Colorado’s Animal Patrol officers are heroes. Just ask a little black kitten named Barney.
On July 5th, CO Law Enforcement officers were called to I-25 in Colorado Springs after hearing of a black kitten running in traffic in the almost 100 degree heat.
According to the Humane Society of the Pikes Peak Region
“He was running for his life in the summer heat, and by the time they were able to catch him, Barney was panting and exhausted,” HSPPR said on Facebook.
“Barney was a bit upset at first that we ended his real-life game of Frogger early, but a cold drink of water, kibble, and a long nap later, Barney was happy to be safe at the shelter and out of danger!”
The HSPPR also added a thank you naming Lieutenant Napieralski and Sergeant Michon for saving the kitten’s life.
