Taylor Cop Heckled by Cat

TAYLOR, Texas - Some are calling it the "purr-fect" traffic stop.

A Taylor police officer proved he can keep his cool, even when pestered by one frisky feline.

The Taylor Police Department says it deals with unleashed dogs, possums, even racoons, but who would've thought a cat would get in the way of an officer's job?

Well, officer Keith Urban refused to let it.

On a routine traffic stop off FM 112 in Taylor, an unexpected visitor prances on to the scene.

At least that's what Urban thought and it was all caught on dashcam.

He notified his supervisor's of the climbing kitten after his day's work.

"He said, 'look, I might be in trouble,' he said, 'I pushed away a cat on my last stop, and I'm afraid someone might say I hurt the cat," said Capt. Don Georgens, Taylor Police Department.

Officer Urban shooed the kitten several times. And you might see why.

During the stop, the cat continues to push the officer's buttons -- climbing up his leg, arm and eventualy, his head.

But Officer Urban is all about business and continues to write a speeding ticket, while even the driver he pulled over offers to help.

Carl Bitter owns the land where the incident happened.

He says he's not surprised that he might have the most daring cat in Taylor.

By the way, Officer Urban cut the driver no slack, even if he was distracted, he issued a speeding ticket.
