Prepare to stop what you're doing and take time for your heart to melt.

That's what is bound to happen when you look at this sweet photo.

Redditor BaconOpinion, who's a police officer, posted this A+ picture of him and a kitten, which he has hired as his new partner.

Imagine being a crook and seeing this kitten coming at you. You don't stand a chance -- one look and you'll stop dead in your tracks, saying, "Awwwwww!" and putting down that big-screen TV you're hauling out of the back alley before you walk over to the critter and let him cuff you for the ride downtown (because crooks these days are still exactly like the ones you saw in the Police Academy movies).
