One police officer’s body cam captured some unexpectedly harrowing footage recently in North Kansas City, Missouri.
While on patrol on the busy Interstate 29 shortly before Christmas, Officer Jason Smith noticed a kitten stranded on a concrete median between lanes and pulled over to help her to safety.
He called for backup, in case the kitten tried running into traffic.
Luckily, Smith retrieved the friendly but scared kitten without much struggle.
Once inside the patrol car, Smith’s cute new friend accidentally set off the police siren. Oops! But she quickly became comfortable and enjoyed the pets and attention she received.
Smith took the kitten to an animal shelter, but decided shortly thereafter to adopt her. She’s been named Bella and has reportedly settled in happily at her forever home!
What’s New…
I am so glad the kitty was saved and found a new home too!!
Die Eltern dieser Kinder gehören ordentlich bestraft, da sie ihre Aufsichtspflicht verabsäumt haben – da es sonst diesen unerzogenen Fratzen nicht möglich gewesen wäre, diese kriminelle Handlung mit dem armen Hund zu setzen!!!
that is the fricken cutest hing i have seen!
I don’t acquit him and neither does any decent person.
RIP PRECIOUS ONE
He SAVED the kitty! Took her home and adopted her! She is alive and well thanks to this officer.
WHAT AN AWESOME HUMAN BEING YOU ARE TO SAVE THIS LITTLE KITTY. THANK YOU SO MUCH. I AM AN ANIMAL LOVER.
CERISE CARR THAT KITTEN ISN’T DEAD YOU DUMB TWIT
Can you read Lutetia beforeyou call someone else a dumb twit???
THANK YOU JASON SMITH FOR THIS AWESOME ACT OF ANIMAL KINDNESS AND CARING. YOU DESERVE A HONER FOR THIS ACT TO SAVE THIS LITTLE KITTY.
Thank you so very much!
Thank you Jason Smith for saving the kitten, and for adopting Bella.
So glad this cop saw the kitten who was probably left there by some cruel people.
What an awsome man , God bless him and this beautiful kitty. What a perfect man
I cannot believe a teacher would do this. The fact is the puppy was alive when he did this. What a cruel act. Makes me sick.
THANK YOU for first of all seeing her, and then saving her, and then adopting her! You have a loving heart! I travel that highway every time I go to visit my mom. It’s a miracle she even made it to the median!
Thank you for being not just a good cop but also a compassionate one. One lucky kitten. Just make sure you have her spay as we don’t need more kittens in an overflowing shelter system.
A man with a heart of gold! Thank you for being not just a good cop but a compassionate one as well. P.S. Don’t forget to have the cat spay. We don’t need more kittens!! Again, thank you!!!!
The video won’t play for me. But kudos to the kindly cop.
Thank you to the officer who saved that innocent life and then gave him or her a loving home! I could see his gentleness in the car. Thank you for sharing a success story!
That’s my kind of cop!
This is very upsetting to have a cruel teacher showing children this appauling feeding. Why would this be worth not penalizing this teacher. This is so wrong on so many levels. She is and this is animal cruelty and needs to be punished and fired from teaching. I like turtles, but there is food that can be fed that is already killed, not a live little puppy. I can’t understand what makes this teacher or a court to allow this cruel deadly behavior.
My kind of guy …. a super cop!
A true brave heart. What a man. Prays for you forever.
Thank God for officer Smith and his kind loving act!
Officer Smith is the true definition of what a true hero really is not the fake ones you see on tv or movies! What a real man should be I hope you and Bella have many happy years together with you and your family. A true Christmas miracle happend that day the real meaning of Christmas is not in the gifts you buy but the gifts you receive that cost nothing because it comes from the heart far more valuable!!!! God bless you all especially Bella you were saved by a angel in blue!
You’re one cool cop, Officer Smith!!
love this cop—God please protect him
Officer Jason Smith is a kindhearted hero! Thank you so much for rescuing and adopting Bella. You will be rewarded with her lifelong love and affection.

Officer Smith you are a very special person. You have saved a tiny life and now have a furry friend for life. I wish you long years of happiness and cuddles.
I keep hearing about cats and dogs stranded in the middle of busy highways. Sick assholes are putting them there because they are so morally depraved, they think this is fun. For God’s sake, if you see this happening get the moron’s license number and call 911. You can call 911 because this evil act could very well cause an accident. Please stop these evil morons. If you see something, say something!
Thank you so much.
Jason you are a true cop. I hope you get the promotion you deserve.
THANK YOU Officer Smith — you’re the best — I’m thrilled you adopted her — unless your local shelter is a NO-KILL, little kittie’s fate would be up in the air, depending on shelter’s Management. ——— Of course, no decent, respectable, animal-caring shelter would ever kill healthy and/or treatable cats.
What a heartwarming video! I hope that policeman was awarded for his caring. The kitty is lucky to have a hero.
Thank you for serving and protecting all!
wish there was more people like this
I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE THAT COP. AND THEN ADOPTING HER AFTERWARDS LOVE HIM!!!
I love men like this!
Thanku Jason Smith.
Real men love cats! And clearly this cat loves him back 🙂
Thank you Officer Jason.
You are wonderful. And you have the most wonderful quality — kindness.
Thank you
Merry Christmas, Bella! What a lucky kitty to have been found by Officer Smith.
