Need motivation for going to work? These cats might help. An enthusiastic Reddit community shares various “jobs” that their feline friends or the felines in their community have, even only in aesthetics.
r/CatsWithJobs is a subreddit dedicated to people who want to share cats that seem to have acquired jobs and duties in society, even if only in appearance. Some include feline musicians, guards, and car techs, among others.
Kevin Bacon, a greeter at a local vet
User u/Satinsbestfriend shares their local vet’s cat named Kevin Bacon after a famous figure. He had appeared to take a liking to greeting the people and other animals that came to their local vet, which is sorely needed in times as dire as when a family has to take their pet to the vet. According to the poster, the cat also has a bobtail, and also added in a comment that “He likes to randomly bite at your hand, then go back to purring and wanting pets. He’s not orange enough to have only one brain cell so,[sic] may even he’s just odd”
Isn’t that adorable?
Pangur appears to play with the house piano

u/ScouringForPuns, who presumably have a predisposition for music themselves, has shared a photo of their cat, who appears to be “playing the piano” much like their owner. Maybe Pangur will be the one to write the next great musical? We’ll find out.
“Your Meow-ny, please!”

u/yusesya, while probably buying a piece of candy or two, may have seen something odd with who was manning–err–cat-ing the counter. They were taken by surprise as a cat was behind the counter, presumably interested in the store’s, and OP’s, “meow-ny”
Vela appears to be interested in oil drums and automobiles

A cat owned by u/Spiritual_Stranger1 seems to be in fixing the two-ton machines humans bring to their own work. No matter how hard or dangerous toying with the electricity and gasoline that underlies fixing a car, Vela appears to be unfazed by it all.
Let us welcome the Industri-Cat Revolution

Seems like our feline friends are taking a liking to the industry, as shown not only by the previous example but also by this one, whom u/Ditzy_Panda caught “red-pawed” trying to maneuver a forklift in their job. How adorable!
Bonus: Kevin Bacon with the bobtail:
