Apparently Denver and Hale went to the suits and said, more or less, "One team, one fight. They deserve equal treatment."

And that's another thing that's underappreciated - teamwork and loyalty. It says a lot about those 2 cats, in particular, that not a single person who ever worked with them had a single bad thing to say.
