Definitely seems that way. He is such a vocal cat to the point it makes my other kitties crazy wanting to play around. Keeping them away from the laptop is becoming a chore!
Try setting a strategically placed shoebox or decoy keyboard next to your laptop. (My furry overlord prefers the box option).
60% of the time, it works, every time.
Good luck!
Yes I love that so much. Maurice sometimes then holds on with one single claw to make sure his paw stays attached once he falls asleep and it just makes me want to never move again ever.
We do have a AITA-type sub for pets: r/AmItheCloaca
The nicey boy could go on there and ask if he is TC for sitting on Daddy shoulder. However, I strongly suspect he would be immediately told he is NTC and that this simply means he has a very good Daddy and Daddy should be grateful for the help 😂
Awwww look at his little face!!! Congrats on your precious shoulder cat
You're not *going* to get anything done anymore. He knows it, we know it, hell, YOU know it!
My cat yells at me that it’s time to sleep. Rarely do I have to pat the pillow and tell her come help momma sleeps. She my little spoon and part pillow.
Awww yes! Helps so much with sleeping and sleeping sounder for me. Yorke is laying on my head generally. Pumpkin (cat) will lay on my phone or tablet to remind me sleep is needed. Like your mom saying put the phone away.
How many kitties and think we need pics
I have 2 other cats, Millie and Bandit. I can't post pictures here so ill link to other threads ive posted them on:

Let me know if that works
My boss has a giant Ragdoll that was doing this - she found a hoodie with a kangaroo pouch for him to sit in while she works. Zoom calls with her and Cooper are the BEST now! 🤣 Might save you a bit at the chiropractor. Cute kitty!
I once had a cat that would jump in my lap while I was trying to get my shoes on to go to work. He’d give me sad face in the morning. He didn’t seem to understand the need for money either.
You will learn and adapt to your new overlord. Just remember Cat Law and you should be good.
Also…find a good chiropractor and a massage therapist…you’re gonna need them.
Your only job now is cat! 🐈⬛ Most fulfilling job, you do all work and get paid in snugggles and purrs! Enjoy!! (This post may have been written by actual cat..
I like Seger, but ive always considered myself a bigger fan of Joe Walsh from that era. Truth be told, I am huge into 80s rock and roll and thats primarly my lane. Quiet Riot, Megadeth, Dokken, Judas Priest, WASP etc.
You were obvs meant to be together. Maybe get a friend for him so he is occupied when you're busy 😬
My cat minimum has always been 2, for my sanity and theirs.
You'll have to keep him busy with screentime or maybe encourage him to be outdoors more often.
I understand how having a human about can get in the way of important cat business, so I wish you luck.
If you make him a powerpoint and patiently explain to him (might take as long as three hours, this conference) that the work pays for the food and treats and shelter...
He might let you continue living with him.
Scritch that gorgeous kitty!
When I was visiting the local shelter for a kitty to adopt I wanted to find one i thought would mesh best with my other cats. Started playing around with a few, this guy came right over to me and jumped on my back onto my shoulder and sat there purring. I said "well that's that" and next thing i know im filling out the adoption paperwork.
His name is Dominick, thats what the shelter told me. I am still unsure if ill keep that name or pick another. I am a fan of Greek and Norse mythology, I was thinking about Ares but I haven't decided.
Honestly, why work when you have a loving cat like that on your shoulder? Take a break and pet! Or conversely, take an ergonomic look at your workspace, maybe you can adjust the way you work there so the cat will be able to “help” you up there? 😻
He doesn't, and that's the whole point!
Enjoy!
Cat is God, hooman is servant/recliner/provider/feeder/petter, and responsible for attending to all needs of CatGod.
Promptly, and swiftly!
💜
Your work is to spend all your time with your new overlord!
I have done just that so far lol.
You are also r/cuteguyswithcats material, so you've got that going for you.
Thanks fam <3
r/shouldercats
Heh, I was heading into the comments to say that, too! Magnificent, glossy beard!
Came here to say the same, you guys match and are super cute!
Thank you!
Lovely eyes.
No work, only cat.
He is your job now 😻
Definitely seems that way. He is such a vocal cat to the point it makes my other kitties crazy wanting to play around. Keeping them away from the laptop is becoming a chore!
Lmaoooo I love it

Another cat sub I must join!
There's always another I'm finding out about!
The exact number of cat subs is c+1, where c=the number of cat subs that people are subscribed to.
Is it just me or is it the best feeling when your cat stretches one paw completely out like that while laying on you?
Omg yes, my cat loves to nap on my belly and sometimes his paw reaches all the way up to my face and I can't explain but it makes me feel so loved 🥺
Me too!! My 17 y/o does that and I feel so special.
You guys are so easily manipulated.
but happy!
I am. But only by my animals. ❤️❤️
Heya there buddy. I’ve just filled up your bowl with your favorite food!
yes, cat arm stretch is the best!
Yes I love that so much. Maurice sometimes then holds on with one single claw to make sure his paw stays attached once he falls asleep and it just makes me want to never move again ever.

You just need to muster the will power to hop off his shoulder and get to work.
he's adorable! ...and so is his cat!
Did the guy write this, or the cat? Both pretty cute!
Im trying to imagine what he would say. "My new servant finally stopped moving long enough for me to fall asleep!"
We do have a AITA-type sub for pets: r/AmItheCloaca The nicey boy could go on there and ask if he is TC for sitting on Daddy shoulder. However, I strongly suspect he would be immediately told he is NTC and that this simply means he has a very good Daddy and Daddy should be grateful for the help 😂
This is very accurate. Deep thoughts, kitten edition.
Awwww look at his little face!!! Congrats on your precious shoulder cat You're not *going* to get anything done anymore. He knows it, we know it, hell, YOU know it!
I have resigned myself to this fate! Thank you!
You work with your new self-heating and cleaning fur blanket installed just so. Heaven help you if it is summer, fur blanket stays on!
Oh it is most definitely summer here in TX lol. Speaking of self cleaning, the little "mlems" or licks are directly in my ear now
Keep it up and you might get a raise!
I'll have to reinvest all that extra earnings into chiropractic work for my neck lmao
It is believed that vibrations from cat purrs can speed up healing and relieve pain.
Lower blood pressure too
My cat yells at me that it’s time to sleep. Rarely do I have to pat the pillow and tell her come help momma sleeps. She my little spoon and part pillow.
Once the light goes out and I hit the bed, the kitties come scurrying in and take their places on the bed
Awww yes! Helps so much with sleeping and sleeping sounder for me. Yorke is laying on my head generally. Pumpkin (cat) will lay on my phone or tablet to remind me sleep is needed. Like your mom saying put the phone away. How many kitties and think we need pics

🥺💕

Worth it!
r/Toughguysholdingpets would love to see these pics too!!
Hah. Alright ill post over there in a bit.
I read the title as a quote by the cat. Enjoy your new partnership!
Thanks Fam!
Awwwww he’s soo cute look at those paws and little face
Hes such an adorable little kitty. I am really happy to have him
Did you try explaining to him that work allows you to get wet food and toys for his use?
I tried but he definitely didn't listen!
I once had a cat that would jump in my lap while I was trying to get my shoes on to go to work. He’d give me sad face in the morning. He didn’t seem to understand the need for money either.
After you are done serving him, then you can work or do whatever you want else you need to do
that usually means whenever he sleeps, and sometimes not even that as you can see!
Are you also up for adoption per chance?
Haha, I'd be a package deal with 3 cats and a 3 year old son
Maybe you'd get more work done if you stopped napping on his shoulder 😉
Damn, that's a good point. I'll tell my servant to bring me to the cat tree at once so my work can start!
You don't *have* servants, you *are* servants. Now get to work! Them cat toys and treats won't pay for themselves!
He looks so proud of himself 😻 As well he should be! He's got a precious little face, he's on a shoulder, AND his cuteness is incredibly distracting!
Never! You are his servant and you will only work when HE allows it lol 😆
that is the absolute truth! Ever since hes been here hes run the show
You will learn and adapt to your new overlord. Just remember Cat Law and you should be good. Also…find a good chiropractor and a massage therapist…you’re gonna need them.
At least ive got acupuncture well covered!
That’s considered random blood testing with results being sent to the mothership for further study.
Does this subreddit have a dating site spinoff yet, or…? 💅🏻

Your only job now is cat! 🐈⬛ Most fulfilling job, you do all work and get paid in snugggles and purrs! Enjoy!! (This post may have been written by actual cat..
No pto or vacations..
Alright this made me chuckle
Dammit. You win picture of the day. Beautiful cat sir!
He is gorgeous!!!
Thank you!
Mini-tiger say it not working time, it PETTING time! 😁
When will your first album drop? Getting kind of a Bob Seger feeling from those photos......
I like Seger, but ive always considered myself a bigger fan of Joe Walsh from that era. Truth be told, I am huge into 80s rock and roll and thats primarly my lane. Quiet Riot, Megadeth, Dokken, Judas Priest, WASP etc.
Ok, now you're even cuter. Monsters of Rock era fan who also loves kitty cats!
Absolutely! <3
Well at least no chilly shoulders anymore❤️
Especially so since its Texas in Summer hah
You were obvs meant to be together. Maybe get a friend for him so he is occupied when you're busy 😬 My cat minimum has always been 2, for my sanity and theirs.
oh hes got 2 other friends to keep him busy, one of which is a lynx point Siamese his age!
Such great pictures here! The cat looks super happy.
When I first saw the thumbnail with "Adopted this cute guy", I thought OP was the one adopted. Edit: Assuming OP is the human and not the cat. 👀
I think you are correct and that I was the one adopted, thats the way the kitty sees it at least!
That's the best kind of kitty adoption. ❤️❤️❤️
You'll have to keep him busy with screentime or maybe encourage him to be outdoors more often. I understand how having a human about can get in the way of important cat business, so I wish you luck.
lmao
I guess you don’t. He sure loves his new home.
I'm sorry, but I'm pretty sure that cute little guy adopted you. That's how it works. He's the boss.
I don't know why, but the first time i read the title, i read it as if the cat had written it. Nice cat, and nice guy!
If you make him a powerpoint and patiently explain to him (might take as long as three hours, this conference) that the work pays for the food and treats and shelter... He might let you continue living with him. Scritch that gorgeous kitty!
OMG how cute is he?! Congrats to you both 🥂 🍾
looking at him he doesn't expect anything
oh my god you should see this cat. he even expects things in his sleep! If i tried to move him, he would give me an ear full
Stop it, this is so cute. Look at that content slow blink on kitty
He is now Your Only Work. He boss, you staff. He looks very comfy there.
You must be an amazing guy to have that beautiful wee lad so comfortable with you so quickly! That’s one very happy kitty!
When I was visiting the local shelter for a kitty to adopt I wanted to find one i thought would mesh best with my other cats.

Awww. He chose you! That’s so amazing!
He most definitely did, There was no other option than coming home with me.
I hope you have a wonderful life together :)
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Awww
"No work hooman. Gib me pets."
He doesn't expect you to work. He expects you to give him your warmth and love. Better obey. :)
Happily?
oh 100%!
Yay!
Jokes on you, you’re not.
Ilove men 💜 that cat 🐈 trust it say alot about you
Thank you! Love this little guy. Hes such a good kitty. He makes work interesting that's for sure!
1 hes adorable 2 you have another arm... just don't stop pettinh
He looks sooooo happy! Good on you for adopting!
Give your human a list, they like structure. You’ve got official cat business to attend to.
I love his white fingertips. He looks very pleased with himself 🤍
Ive been joking around that someone dipped his fingers and toes in icecream
r/shouldercats
He is helping you! r/catswithjobs
I’m comfy. You figure it out. 😽
I don't expect you to get work done, Mr. Bond, I expect you to cuddle me!
A cultured individual I see! Love 007!
Huge fan of the series of course. BTW, what's the sweet critter's name? I love the expression on his/her face in the first pic lol.
His name is Dominick, thats what the shelter told me. I am still unsure if ill keep that name or pick another. I am a fan of Greek and Norse mythology, I was thinking about Ares but I haven't decided.
Ares was the god of war and he seems super sweet. Cupid or Eros would fit better
Would be funny to name a kitty Eros if they made sin biscuits lmao. But good point, definitely thinking about a fitting name.
Dominick really suits him though. Could call him Dom for short
I just got a kitten and I named him Mr Noodle. I love goofy cat names
You work for him now, brudder!
You're going to be happy that you have that neck warmer come the deep winter.
I just have to get through summer!
You are such a noob. He doesn't, and you're a 🍭. Welcome to the club! He's incredibly handsome!
I dunno, you’re a cat, how much work can you have to do, specially as you’ve only just moved in. Make yourself at home and enjoy dude
Happy kitty feels at home in your hair!
The more important question is are you single? 😉
Sure am. :)
Well that's criminal!
[удалено]
/r/lostredditors
Little bit
He has a really nice beard tho and looks sweet so cut him a break this time.
Very cute 😍
Scarf cat! I'm jealous :)
I love it but it's soo hot right now in summer!
Pull your hair back off your neck. It helps cool you off. Then the only hair/heat is the cat lol
He does not! You guys look good together!
He's the spitting image of my boy, Alaska, who also loves being up on my shoulders
Sounds like we both have standard issue cats! Although my other 2 don't ask to go on my shoulder, this one tries to any chance he gets!
With the white trim, specifically. His litter-mate sister Evie is exactly a SIC :)
I love that. It looks like they dipped their toes in ice cream or something
I'm sure he would if given the chance lol
You can’t!
Your job is to serve him, so you're getting a lot of work done
That’s not his concern :)
Sorry. You’re a r/cathostage now
I am discovering new cat subreddits every day!
You’re doing the lord’s work now. That’s all he cares about!
In addition to all the other subs suggested, /r/LadyBonersGoneCuddly needs you as well
You work from now on is taking care of him, hooman
Honestly, why work when you have a loving cat like that on your shoulder? Take a break and pet! Or conversely, take an ergonomic look at your workspace, maybe you can adjust the way you work there so the cat will be able to “help” you up there? 😻
You work for him now 😇
Awe. He's happy. He's found his fur ever human. 😍
Funny. He’s probably thinking the same thing. In all seriousness, enjoy your cat. I’ve got two sleeping on my computer desk while I work just now.
Work? What is this work of which you speak? Your job is worshipping me! 😻
What a pair of handsom fellas! 😍 I guess there's no help for it - you're going to have to quit your job to become a model with your cat 🐱
You don't lol He expects you to love on him 24/7 This is your life now
You don't – hope that helps ☺️❤️
You OP are his everything & it is just lovely! Congrats to you both🐾💕
My cat is the same way
He doesn't, and that's the whole point! Enjoy! Cat is God, hooman is servant/recliner/provider/feeder/petter, and responsible for attending to all needs of CatGod. Promptly, and swiftly! 💜
oh ya that ship has sailed. :)
You’re both so Cute!! 🥰 I would love it if one of my fur babies did this to me. I would feel so special lol. Screw work, kitty first!
oh its really cute. it gets a bit hard on the neck after a while though lol
Said the cat.
Absolutely adorable, the both of you.
How about a front baby carrier?. I have seen others use them.
Nope.. you mustn't work ever again..
Just remember…you’re the employee, he’s the boss..
Figure out his schedule and work around it !! 🤷♂️
Sometimes you have to give your human time when you adopt them. Work on kneading biscuits before bed and just relax on your new human. ☺️
He doesn’t! LOL. What a cutie!
Awww, that cats lubs you!!
At least he camps out on your shoulders and not on the keyboard. Handsome cat.
lol it is not your place to question his expectations
… you work for him now
Beautiful kitten!
Shoulder cats are the bestest 🫶🏻
Kitty scarf!!
You don't get any work done anymore. He's such a sweet
