A South Carolina police officer has become an internet sensation after rescuing an adorable kitten that he now takes on patrol with him.
南卡罗莱纳州的一名警官在救了一只可爱的小猫咪后成为了网红，现在他正带着猫咪一起巡逻呢。

Cody Garrett, 28, of Spartanburg, offered to take the tiny kitten home with him after another officer found the cat hiding under a trash dumpster to get out of the rain and brought her back to the police department.
 
一名警官在垃圾车下面发现了躲雨的小猫咪后将其带回了警局，来自斯帕坦堡28岁的科迪·加勒特提出将这只小猫咪带回家照料。

The mustached cop told ABC News that he decided to take it upon himself to nurse the kitten back to health because he already had a rescue cat named Toothless at home who happens to be nursing four kittens.
这个大胡子警察告诉ABC News说他准备自己照料这只小猫咪到康复状态，因为在他家，他救过一只喵星人，取名叫Toothless，这个猫妈妈正在哺育四只小猫咪。

When the kitten met her 'adopted mom' for the first time, she went to the bathroom—earning her the name Squirt. 
当小猫咪第一次见到养母的时候，她跑去了卫生间，因此给他取名Squirt.

'That’s one of the only reasons I brought her home instead of taking her to the Humane Society,' he said of Squirt. 'She needed a mom so it worked out.' 
“这就是为什么我要将它带回家而不是把他送到动物保护协会，”他说。“Squirt需要一个妈妈，这样才能解决问题。”

Squirt is continuing to get stronger thanks to the support of her adoptive family, which includes her new mom, her four siblings, and Cody's two dogs.
 幸亏有寄样家庭的支持，Squirt才得以茁壮成长，而这个寄养家庭有养母，和四个兄弟姐妹，还有科迪的两只狗狗。

Cody later took to Instagram to share photo of himself with Squirt, who is sporting a matching mustache.
科迪之后分享了一张和Squirt的照片，小猫咪也被描上了和他一样的胡须。

More than 1,300 people liked the photo, with people from all around the world singing his praises. 
超过1300人对照片点了赞，来自全世界的人都在赞扬他。

Since he brought Squirt home with him, Cody has shared numerous photos and videos of his new pet.
自从将Squirt带回家，科迪便分享了很多关于他新宠的视频和照片。
