'''''Terry's Kitties''''' is the nineteenth episode of ''Series/BrooklynNineNine'''s third season.
A delivery man brings Terry a kitten, resulting in the sergeant telling Jake of how, as a rookie detective at the Six-Five, he'd been mercilessly hazed by the senior detectives. Just when it seemed as if he'd cracked his first case, it turned out that the prime suspect was wheelchair-bound and Terry found himself ranting and raving that the suspect's cat was probably an accomplice. Ever since that humiliating incident, the Six-Five have been sending Terry a kitten on the anniversary of that day as a reminder. Jake, feeling sorry for Terry, resolves that he'll help his friend finally solve the twenty-year-old cold case.
Meanwhile, Holt, Rosa, Amy, along with Hitchcock and Scully, take part in a bomb dismantling class where Rosa and Amy's competitive sides take over.
Also, Pimento's been evicted from his apartment (his screaming was keeping other tenants awake) and invites himself over to Charles' apartment, something which Charles is too meek to object to.

* CallBack: The episode title is a play on Terry's old nickname of "Terry Titties" from "[[Recap/BrooklynNineNineS1E01Pilot Pilot]]".
