We need to start an official "Take Your Cat To Work Day"! I know of several people who take their dogs to work - I used to work for a woman who brought 5 chihuahuas to work every day. Cats are so much more well behaved when the postman comes in - we need to take our cats to work! Who's with me? :)

Not a bad idea!! :D Only, I work at a bakery... I HIGHLY doubt they'd let any furry animal come in. :(

Hmm... maybe I should shave my kitties :D LOL!! Just kidding. ;)

I miss mine so bad when I am at work...... of coarse, work for me means I am seperated from them for 28 days! I would LOVE to have one of them on the boat with me to keep me company but since I am the cook, that can not be!!!! (even if the company allowed it)

Since I work from home, they are always at work with me! Its always fun to see a mufacturer's rep come to the house to update my literature. Both my boys are a huge welcoming commitee... wonder how much fun it'll be with a party of 4 welcoming reps?

As much as I would love it, Max and Speckles would have no part in it. Not only do they hate car rides, but they hate unfamiliar places. Sorry, no go on this end.:(

but at the moment I'm working at a data-entry job in which speed and accuracy count. :eek: Don Juan has a habit of letting his tail dangle over the screen right in the spot where I have to look! :mad:

Plus, there's his habit of walking on the keyboard if he doesn't think he's getting enough attention. :D :D

if my cat came to work with me i wouldn't get anything done! I work in a library and I can't think of anything better than reading a good book with a fuzzy purrbox on my lap.

Marsha in a coffee house? I can think of lots of places I WOULD take her if I worked, but not to the coffee house!

I did take Chloe to work, but only for an afternoon. I teach preK, so she came for a visit.

Well, my kitties would not like going to work with me at all. Like Laura, I work a rotational schedule. She's gone 28 days at a time, I'm gone 14. I sure do miss my babies, but I don't think they would do well in Prudhoe Bay (on the Arctic Ocean). They don't even like car trips. Can't imagine how they'd do on a 1.5 hour plane trip every 2 weeks. :eek:

I work at a vet, so taking them there is never their idea of fun. ;)

We do have an office cat (Sam, a black 7-year-old), so that's kind of like having my own with me all day.

I work in the Sears call centre, Katie and Simba would have a ball running around checking everything out:) , but I would be afraid of them getting lost in that great big place and me never finding them. :rolleyes: So I voted No, I wouldn't take my fur kids to work.

Filou and Tigris would enjoy so much to work in publishing! All these computer printers, papers and bookshelves! They could take over the archiving:D Unfortunately they would hate the drive over there. Driving means "vet" to them and is not recommended:( :p
