Cats don't always realize we have their best interests at heart – as you'll know if you've ever had to give one some medicine or keep them away from chocolate on the counter – and one cat in Thailand has proved no exception. Earlier this month, a police officer in Bangkok, Da Parinda Pakeesuk, shared that an American Shorthair had been brought to the station by a local. However, the cat went on to scratch and bite a number of officers and was duly 'arrested' as a result. 'This cat has been charged with assaulting police officers and is about to be detained. Please share this post so her owner can come and bail her out,' he wrote on social media, before taking the kitty home and posting a photo of her in his car. He said that he'd sorted plenty of the best cat food, litter, and toys for his new guest, and joked, 'She is living her best life while the police are the true victims.' People online were queuing up to adopt the cat, but Pakeesuk explained that the police were trying to find her parent, advising on Facebook, 'If you truly love cats, feel free to adopt one of the many strays at my home or from a local shelter.' It's reported that Pakeesuk is a real animal lover himself, having rescued 20 stray cats and six dogs in the past. Fortunately, the cat's parent got in touch with the police station and the pair have been reunited. The cat is called Nub Tang – which translates to 'counting money', and, happy to see Nub Tang back, her owner dressed her in a delicate lace collar at the station in celebration. After Pakeesuk composed a police report from the cat's point of view, writing, 'I was just hungry. I did not mean to bite anyone,' and Nub Tang 'signed it' with paw prints and had her mugshot taken, the policeman gave her a verbal warning. 'This case must be handled properly,' he joked, 'We cannot have other cats thinking that biting people is acceptable.' After Pakeesuk posted a photo of the cat's mugshot, the story went viral. 'I showed this case to my two cats. Hopefully, they will take it as a warning not to scratch my sofa or chew my computer cables,' joked one person, while another described the cat's face as being 'very troublesome.' Hopefully, you'll never be in the same position as Nub Tang's parent, but if you are, here's how to find a lost cat

Feisty cat ‘arrested' for biting cops in Thailand; its mugshot pose goes viral: ‘She is living her best life'
In one of the most hilarious stories to come out of Thailand recently, a feisty little feline found herself at the center of an unusual police incident that quickly went viral online. It all began when a good Samaritan brought a lost American Shorthair cat to a police station in Bangkok. Officer Da Parinda Pakeesuk, who's known on social media for his love of animals, welcomed the unexpected visitor and offered her shelter. Dressed in a charming pink harness, the cat – later revealed to be named Nub Tang – immediately made her presence known by swatting, scratching, and even biting several officers, according to South China Morning Post. Undeterred, officer Pakeesuk took it all in stride. In a tongue-in-cheek Facebook post, he wrote: 'This cat has been charged with assaulting police officers and is about to be detained. Please share this post so her owner can come and bail her out.' The post went viral, bringing a smile to thousands of netizens. That evening, the officer took Nub Tang home with him, and shared a photo of her calmly sitting in his car. He had already prepared food, toys, and a comfortable space for her. 'She is living her best life, while the police are the true victims,' he said. While dozens of people expressed interest in adopting her, Pakeesuk reminded everyone that the goal was to reunite her with her actual family. 'If you truly love cats, feel free to adopt one of the many strays at my home, or from a local shelter,' he said, referencing the 20 cats and six dogs he rescued over the years. Nub Tang's owner soon came forward. According to Thai news outlet Khaosod English, her name means 'counting money' in Thai. To celebrate her safe return, her owner dressed her in an elegant lace collar and visited the station to take her home. Before letting her go, Pakeesuk decided to have some more fun. He drafted a light-hearted police report from the cat's point of view, quoting her as saying, 'I was just hungry. I did not mean to bite anyone.' She 'signed' the report with two tiny paw prints and even posed for a mugshot. No fines were issued, but Nub Tang did receive a stern – read affectionate – verbal warning. Pakeesuk said, 'Hopefully she's learned her lesson.'
