This story takes place in Texas, where two police officers had just handled a shoplifting call at a local TJ Maxx. The officers were then asked to help out with something else entirely. There were two little kittens trapped underneath an automobile. If the officers did not help out, who knows what would have happened to these innocent kittens?

The mother cat had probably hidden them beneath the car and was going to come back for them eventually. Once the officers knew where the kittens were hiding, they set about the task of freeing them from their makeshift prison. The car’s owner was baffled. They did not own these cats and had no clue how they came to be in this location. Luckily, these officers were able to offer the necessary assistance in a timely manner.

The officers safely removed them and before long, they were making sure that they were safe. The photos of the officers with these kittens are simply too cute. The kittens could not get enough of the helpful officers, either. They knew just how lucky they were for the officers to come along. That’s why they had to give their new friend lots and lots of cuddles.

The kittens were then taken to the vet’s office. Fortunately, the animals were found to be in good condition. The kittens were also given some formula to drink because they were quite hungry by the time they were found. As you may have expected, the officers were becoming more and more attached to the kittens with each and every minute that passed.

Officer Adkins was not going to allow these kittens to stay in a shelter. He decided that he would take both of them home and give them a chance to meet his family. The kittens were also given the most adorable names: TJ and Max. They are now settling in at their new pal’s home and we are swooning at the sight of these pictures. This is one officer who is willing to go above and beyond to help others.

What a heartwarming story! We are definitely glad that this kind police officer came along when he did. All it takes is one gesture to change the life of another living creature forever. While this officer was probably not planning on adopting two new kittens, fate sometimes has greater things in store for us. Please be sure to share away, everyone.
