Rusik's Uniform

Origin
Rusik was the first Russian police sniffer cat at Stavropol near the Caspian sea. He made an important contribution in the search for hidden illegal cargoes of Sturgeon fish, an endangered species, and caviar.

Rusik began his crime-fighting career when he appeared at the police checkpoint in 2002. Following his adoption by the staff, Rusik demonstrated his ability to sniff out sturgeon-smugglers' stashes with astonishing accuracy. His talent for sniffing out poached fish soon found him taking over the job of the police's canine team member.

Rusik died in the line of duty on 12 July 2003, when he was hit by a mafia owned car during an inspection. He had apparently found smuggled sturgeon in the same car some time before, according to personnel at the police checkpoint. Some local sources expressed their belief that Rusik was the object of a contract killing, but the truth is still unclear. Rusik was a siamese with only a year's service.

Collection
After a series of cat deaths in Russia, Felix Draco was sent to investigate. It was discovered that once Rusik's uniform was given away after his death, it traded across many towns before it was being used as a costume for Halloween. However, the cats who wore the uniform before the holiday were later killed by oncoming vehicles. The uniform, every time, was left without a scratch. After Felix personally consoled the grieving pet owners, he found the uniform and kept collected it.

Storage
This artifact, due to the fact that several animals regularly live in the Warehouse, is to be kept in a locked box at all times. If used for any reason, the artifact is to be neutralized immediately after use, and the pet is to stay indoors for at least 24 hours before it its safe.

Felix's Notes
"This artifact is not to be taken out of its box. I don't care what use it may have, this thing is a menace to animals. Imagine if Shodi, Trailer, or God forbid, Garrett, walks by and comes in contact with it enough for it to activate? I'm not risking it. Let's see if Mrs. F. will allow me to throw this thing in the Fornax."
