The Manchester Evening News reports Manchester’s Cat Café is seeking a ‘human servant’, or assistant manager to give it its proper title, to provide ‘unlimited love and attention’ to its residents.

The café posted the job advert on its Facebook page for the £18.5k role, along with a picture of one of its cats.

It reads: “I am currently looking for a new head servant to look after me and all my friends. Your main responsibilities would obviously be feeding me, cleaning my toilet, grooming me, playing with me and giving me unlimited love and attention. Cat Café is all about me after all.

“My current head servant says the customers are pretty important too – so you also need to be able to look after them.

“Our main job at the cafe is to make the humans who visit us happy. Therefore, it would be your responsibility to ensure me and my friends are happy and the customers have a purrfect experience when visiting our home.”

The successful candidate will require an ‘authentic love of cats and coffee’, at least two years’ experience in a supervisory role in hospitality and will take charge of cashing up, stock takes, placing orders and managing the cats’ weekly health checks.

So if you or someone you know has the right cat-itude, don’t pussyfoot around – do something paw-sitive [enough with the cat puns – Ed.].
