As an active foster parent for the local shelter, Young Williams Animal Center, the kind-hearted woman from Knoxville, Tennessee, couldn’t bear the thought of leaving Joey alone at home.

So, she brought her along to the office. Joey needed feeding every few hours, but she also craved the warmth of human company.

The once-quiet office was now filled with the delightful sounds of Joey’s mews every few hours, signaling her feeding time. She became an essential part of the team, even making the occasional “keyboard inspection.”

The woman’s colleague shared on Reddit,

“We hear little squeaky mews every four hours when she has to be bottle-fed.”

“Most of the day she sleeps. Things will probably change once she’s older and needs to use a litter box.”

Named Joey for her love of cozy blankets and cuddles, this adorable furball found solace in between her feeds, enjoying blissful naps. Her presence brought joy and affection to everyone in the office.
