Going to work and having a floofy feline overlord at home are two concepts that contradict each other. As cat pawrents, we know that having a cat at home, when you adopt this whiskered creature into your family, you start living by their rules. And one of these rules, a very impawrtant one, is: "You go where I want you to go, and when I order you to do so". Your cat leads you to the door? You must follow and open it, right meow. Your cat is walking you to the snack drawer? Well, you know what to do? And when your cat doesn't want attention? You must walk away. It's always on their terms.

And that's why going to work breaks that sacred rule of the feline-human relationship. Expecially because its built on the notion that we, humble hoomans, are meant to serve the cat royalty leaving between out four walls. And how can that be true, when we leave for an office somewhere that's not at home, with our laps ready for Their Highness endless naps?

So we took to the interwebs, like you know we always do, and made sure to combine these two concepts together in memes - cats and work. Some working cat memes are a great way to aleviate the strain on your cat-human relations of a Monday like this, when you need to go to work and they didn't approve it.

    Anonymous 03/29/25(Sat)23:17:40 No.80801575 In the office, we adopted a cat and named him Connor. He's officially employed by the company to hunt mice and provide emotional support to the staff. We even provide him with a salary that we use to buy him food and toys. But last month, we hired a new guy, also named Connor. And to avoid confusion, we started calling him "Human Connor." Human Connor then suggested we rename the cat "Cat Connor" and let him be just Connor. But, of course, that was rid
