When I first got sober, I learned you can't do it alone. I was reminded of this with every recovery meeting I attended, with every conversation I had with a sober friend, and with all the check-ins with my sober online communities. Also with therapists. With a supportive husband. With God. And another soul was well-invested in me during those early days of recovery. It was my cat, Steve.
For anyone who's ever felt their stress melt away as their feline friend tiptoes across their keyboard, it's almost as if cats were born for the remote work revolution. Cats don't just keep us company; they inspire, calm, and sometimes outright entertain us in surprising ways. Their quirky personalities, soothing presence, and uncanny ability to sense when we need a break make them more than just pets-they're the perfect work-from-home partners.
