My cat has given himself a self-appointed job. He pulls all the towels down from their racks and opens all the cabinet and bedside table doors on a daily basis. It's what he does. I bet that cat sits and waits for the mailman just so he can "play".

(130,533 posts)14. Cats with jobs!
Jim Trenter was fed up with the mice chomping into grass seed bags at his business warehouse until he heard about the new working cat program of the Animal Humane Society.
Despite the fact that cats and working rarely appear in the same sentence, he adopted two felines. They now live and labor in the warehouse, which is suddenly mouse-free.
Best employees I have had! joked Trenter, manager at Ramy Turf Products in St. Paul. And you feel really good about it. Youre able to give a cat that might be euthanized a good place to live.
Thats precisely the goal of this program, designed to find less conventional living arrangements and a full-time job for cats that arent a success on the adoption floor.
