The unique company in Japan where several cats work in the highest positions

 

While it’s not surprising to have a cat in an office, making them company employees is definitely surprising. Yes, in Japan, a company has hired several cats. Ten cats work for this company, most of which are full-time employees. The office has been designed to make it comfortable for the cats.

There are also 21 humans employed there who enjoy working alongside the cats. When the company moved to a four-story office in 2020, they didn’t forget about their important feline employees.

The second and third floors were renovated so the cats could live there easily. Twelve toilets and other amenities were installed for the cats, and the walls were painted with materials that wouldn’t be damaged by their claws. The cats have various positions like Chief Clerk, Auditor, and Chair Cat. A cat named Fetoba, who is 20 years old, holds the highest position, and even the humans work under her. Eight cats are always present in the office, while the other two live at an employee’s home. The staff admits that the cats sometimes interrupt their work, but they welcome it because it gives them a chance to take breaks.

They also mentioned that the cats help improve relationships among people, and in return, they take care of the cats' cleanliness and food.
