Cat Coronavirus Diary – Day 22 – Julian Worker Fiction Writing

Hello Humans:

It seems that nearly 48% of people who are working from home at the moment would prefer to work from home all the time, and would even be willing to take a pay reduction in order to achieve this.

I hope my humans are not amongst them because they’re getting under my paws now and interrupting my sleeping patterns. Their attention spans are getting shorter and they come to stroke me every 30 minutes rather than once a day like they used to in the days of long ago last month.

I need my sleep and I am probably getting just 15 hours now per day whereas it used to be at least 16 hours. I will be getting bags under my eyes soon and wrinkles in my fur due to the lack of sleep.

I am beginning to see why those cats in the video had their beds hanging in the ceiling where the humans couldn’t reach them. Those are clever cats. I think I will try and drag my bed on to the bookcase overnight, where I should be able to rest unmolested.

It’s time humans went back to work. Miaow out loud.
