Crime-fighting cat now trying therapy
Published: May 17, 2006
It’s on to the next caper for Fred, the crime-fighting cat. The feline, part of an undercover sting in February to get a man pretending to be a veterinarian, is in the process of being certified as a therapy cat, according to his owner, Brooklyn Assistant District Attorney Carol Moran.
She told Newsday in Tuesday’s editions that once the paperwork is filed, Fred will be part of a program that will bring him into schools to show children the importance of animal care.
The tabby received high marks on a behavioral test, Moran said, because he was comfortable with being petted and held by strangers and being in crowded spaces.
Fred posed as a patient as part of a sting operation that netted a man who allegedly treated an untold number of pets without a license.
