Employees "Supervised by Feline Bosses"! Efficiency Soars, Thousands Rush to Apply: Are They Still Hiring?

In this era where pets are adored, many companies are now allowing employees to bring their pets to work, or even having pets in the office itself. A cat real estate company in Osaka, Japan, is a dream workplace for many cat lovers. The company's Twitter editor shared a post highlighting their employee benefits, which feature cats as the main attraction. Photos show employees working with long-haired cats by their side or even sleeping on their laps. When employees take breaks on the sofa, cats join them, creating a cat-filled office environment.

This company specializes in converting homes into cat-friendly spaces and has several "cat CEOs" and "cat employees" in the office. Human employees are accompanied by cats of all sizes, whether they are busy working or relaxing during lunch breaks. The therapeutic effect of these feline companions helps alleviate work fatigue. An employee shared a photo of a tiger-striped kitten clinging to their arm during lunch, which sparked envy among cat enthusiasts.

Comments poured in, praising the work environment: "I'd gladly work overtime," "Are they hiring?" "This is an incredibly happy workplace," "I feel like I'd want to live at the office," and "I'd love to go, but my cat would be jealous." Clearly, the charm of cats is unbeatable, and working with them can be distracting, making it hard to leave the office at the end of the day.
