Company Adopts 2 Office Kittens (Debit And Credit) To Boost Employee Morale

Some basic skills of an office worker are organizing material, answering the phone and using a computer. Debit and Credit, the office cats, know how to do almost all of this. “Hired” by the finance and computer department of a trucking company in Ohio, these rescued kittens got their “jobs” not only because of their natural ability to play with boxes, but also because of their ability to boost office morale.

These two adorable little brothers are not only the delight of their office, but of the entire Internet. They were introduced to Reddit by one of the employees, playing and hiding under a box. Understandably, people wanted to see more. Debit and Credit now have their own Instagram account with more than 6,000 followers.

One employee said that the kittens stay in the office in the afternoons, but they visit them on weekends to pamper them and play.

Having animals in the office has become an increasingly popular trend in recent years. Dogs and cats can be psychologically beneficial to people. “They reduce stress, increase productivity because they interact with you on their own, and when they show up at your work area, they are a good reminder to take a break,” explained psychologist Lotte Spijkerman.

Although having pets can be fun, there are problems to be solved, such as those who have allergies to them. In the case of this company, the employee said: “My building is small, there are only 6 of us. The others are in another building.”
