China’s new trend.
Humans work to earn money to buy and pay for things like yummy food, such as pizza and cool gadgets like smartwatches. But have you ever seen a cat or dog going to work in a suit?
In China, some pet owners send their cats and dogs to "work" at pet cafes. These pets don’t wear suits but roam around customers and then go home at night. As pet cafes grow, cute “pet employees” are becoming a big part of it.
Pet cafes are places where you can enjoy tasty food and drinks while playing with adorable cats and dogs. It’s a great place to relax, meet new animal friends, and enjoy a milkshake!

Pet lovers adore this idea!

This trend is growing as people love playing with cute cats and dogs at pet cafes. Cafe owners charge an entry fee and even post ads for “pet employees” on social media. Visitors often buy snacks and drinks, giving the owners more income.
Pet owners also like this idea! Their furry friends get to play with others, so they don’t feel lonely while their humans are at work.
In the summer, pet owners can even save on electricity bills by not running the AC (air conditioners) if their pets are at a cafe during the day. Plus, pets get treats and food as their "salary" for playing all day!
Isn’t it a fun trend? Pet cafes are becoming popular in India, too, but sending pets to work hasn’t started here yet. Do you think it’s time to try it here, too?
