Tomorrow is Take your Dog to Work Day, I think we need a Take your CAT to Work day!

What could possibly go wrong with having a bunch of cats roaming your office? Think of all the office rodents that would disappear.

11. No. I have an office with a door.
Edited on Mon Jun-22-09 07:38 PM by hippywife
It was just really difficult to keep people from opening the door so I felt I had to be on guard at all times. Lina, the older once wasn't too terrified, but when I tried to pick Lucy up and carry her down the hall with me, she freaked out and scratched me in the face. She eventually ended up sitting on my desk between me and the keyboard and fell asleep.

It just wasn't worth it to be so on edge all day...for either of us! LOL

I really only did it so I could run by the vet's on the way home to have stitches removed after they'd been spayed instead of going all the way home, picking them up and coming back to the vet's.

10. That would be...um... interesting.
Many of the people I work with have cats. If we all brought our cats it would be really, really... loud.

12. The boss would be appalled at all the cat typing on the reports
Not to mention the number of important documents out of place. And all that cat hair on the clothes!
