A Japanese company encourages staff to bring their cats to the office.
DEADLINES, computer crashes, presentations, meetings – the modern workplace can be stressful. But instead of chewing your nails to the quick or sending your fidget spinner into overdrive you could follow the example of one Japanese IT firm.
The Tokyo-based company is tackling the pressures of the office environment in the most adorable way possible – with cats.
Just imagine a cuddly moggy dozing on your desk, rubbing against your leg, nibbling on kibble near your keyboard or enjoying a catnap on your lap while you type away . . . This kitty utopia is precisely the calm atmosphere Hidenobu Fukuda has created at his company, Ferray.
