You Can Get Paid To Be A Professional Cat Cuddler AKA The Best Job Ever

Some jobs sound made up until you see the listing, and this one is pure cat-lover fantasy. A Dublin veterinary clinic called Just Cats posted for a "crazy cat person" whose main task would be giving kitties endless cuddles, snuggles, and attention.

The role quickly caught attention because it turns a favorite daydream into an actual paycheck, with a few unusual qualifications attached. From warm-and-fuzzy cat obsession to the ability to handle strays and whisper to cats, the listing is as specific as it is adorable.

Now the only question is whether cat people everywhere are ready to pack their bags for Ireland.

Where do we sign up, right?

Here's the deal: a Dublin-based veterinarian clinic, "Just Cats," posted a job listing. They were seeking a "crazy cat person" (I'm waving frantically, okay?) whose only responsibility in this job would be to give copious amounts of cuddles, snuggles, and love to kitties. Every. Single. Day. 

That is basically the dream job for anyone who measures life in cat naps and purrs.

Me, right meow.

One of the most important qualifications for the job? Feeling "warm and fuzzy" whenever you see a cat, of course. They also prefer people who enjoy feeding strays in their spare time. 

In case I haven't made myself clear yet...

Additional personality and capability requirements Just Cats was looking for:

"Gentle hands capable of petting and stroking cats for long periods of time, the ability to be "softly spoken," and "capable of cat whispering."

And if you’re wondering whether cats can actually work, check out these CEO wannabes, based on their work ethic.

That job description is doing the absolute most.

Just call me Jackson.

Of course, they're not just taking our word for cat obsession; applicants have to be qualified by The Veterinary Council of Ireland!

Everything good and pure in the world.

I'm pretty sure every cat lover everywhere is super stoked about this job and hopes that we can find similar options near us. Otherwise, let's all move to Ireland. For the cats, of course. I would be happy to cuddle with any type of cat, but this is the cutest cat breed I've ever seen!

Cat people are absolutely going to be jealous of this one.
