These days, with so many folks working from home, it’s not uncommon to have some unusual co-workers tagging along. And when those co-workers are your furry feline friends, things can get quite entertaining, as a Reddit video shared by a user named millavi hilariously demonstrates.
In the clip, we see a woman diligently working from her couch. Right from the start, you’ll notice a gray cat snuggled up by her leg – a cozy, portable fuzzy heater, you might say.
As the video rolls on, it becomes apparent that this woman has more than one work companion. In fact, a second cat’s ear starts peeking out from under her poncho.
The woman, however, remains unfazed by her growing team of co-workers. When a third white cat makes its appearance, she lifts her poncho, and the cat happily climbs onto her lap. Is this just a regular day in her work-from-home life?
As she picks up her phone, the orange cat in her lap decides it’s the perfect opportunity to rest its head on her laptop. But the woman, dedicated to her tasks, doesn’t let this minor obstacle deter her. She simply moves the cat’s head away from the tracker pad when she needs to get back to her work on the computer.
And the hilarity continues: as the video progresses, it becomes evident that yet another critter is hidden beneath the blanket. The woman is now a magnet for cats, all of whom crave her warmth and attention.
The video concludes with the woman trying to move her leg, which has apparently fallen asleep. However, her feline companions have made themselves quite comfortable, and they don’t seem inclined to budge anytime soon.
These cat co-workers, while undoubtedly adorable, appear to be more of a roadblock than helpful hands (or paws, in this case).
Reddit users, having a good laugh over the video, couldn’t help but relate to the situation. Within a short span, the post garnered over 134,000 upvotes and 1,700 comments.
Many empathized with the woman’s predicament, while others expressed concern about the number of cats she had to manage and her posture. One Reddit user mused, “The more cats I saw, the harder it was for me to decide whether this was heaven for me or hell for my work.”
Another pointed out that working from home with cats can vary greatly depending on the circumstances, saying, “It’s manageable if they’re just chilling and snuggly, but I have one who howls if I’m on a call for longer than 20 minutes because she feels I’m grossly neglecting her.”
Clearly, this woman’s experience with her furry co-workers struck a chord with many, making it a relatable and amusing slice of working-from-home life.
