ARTICLE: Australia: (sic) "Hospital Hire a Cat as a Security Guard and Give Him His Own ID Badge."

They need to get rid of that bell, though. It has always seemed cruel to put bells on cats like that.

While it’s not clear who made the ID badge, it looks hilariously official. Complete with his portrait, name, and job title, Elwood wears it proudly while he surveys the hospital premises....

At first, the hospital staff presumed Elwood was a stray, but they recently discovered that he lives just across the street. The conscientious kitty comes to work every day, and he takes his job pretty seriously. “He is lovely and friendly but not overly affectionate, he enjoys a good pat but likes to keep things short and move around a fair bit,” says Trollip. “He is on the security team after all, has to make sure everyone coming and going gets checked.”
