This isn’t your usual job list because, well, it’s cats we’re talking about. The "Cats With Jobs" subreddit is basically a cheeky tribute to our feline friends dressed up and play-acting as busy professionals. But some of these kitties do more than look cute - they actually chase down pests or snag your attention like true pros. Which cat job would you pick? Spoiler: napping is always a top contender!
In Chicago, the rat problem got so big that folks teamed up with some street-smart cats to help out. These cats aren’t just freeloaders; they get comfy in "kitty condos" and go on nighttime rat patrols. It’s like a secret agent squad, but with whiskers and purrs!
New York gave the cat rat-squad a shot too, but no luck there. Turns out, city rats are too streetwise for the kitties. Still, cats have been in rodent control for nearly a thousand years, guarding granaries and now even Disneyland. Who knew exterminators could be this adorable?
Lights, Camera, Meow! Some cats have made the big time as movie stars. Think Marlon Brando’s chilled-out buddy in The Godfather or the sassy tabby from Breakfast at Tiffany's. And lately, cats like Tonic have been stealing scenes like they’re born to be famous.
Cats aren’t just cute fluffballs; they’re also heartwarming therapists! Purring can actually help heal bones and ease pain. Schools, hospitals, and even prisons find that a little kitty cuddling goes a long way in stress relief. Talk about the purrfect job!
Ever heard of a cat in government? Meet Larry, the UK’s Chief Mouser, who keeps parliament pest-free and has even chased off a fox. Who needs guards when a fluffy feline with attitude is on the job?
Way back, some folks tried using cats to deliver mail. They tied tiny bags to their collars and hoped for the best. Spoiler: the cats showed up, just not exactly on time. So that idea was quickly scrapped, but hey, it was worth a shot!
Japan’s train station had a bummer of a last stop - until they hired Tama, the stray cat, as “Super Stationmaster.” Visitors flocked just to see her, bringing in millions for the town. Now that’s what I call a celebrity cat!
Though Tama’s passed on, her kitty successors keep the train station pawsitively lively.
