Animal help wanted! Pet cafés, where guests can spend time with dogs, cats or even more exotic animals, are big business in China. Some café owners now take the opportunity to accept applications from furry four-legged friends, as CNN writes. This is popular with people who want to put their pets to work. „Earn snack money“ (zhengmao tiaoqian) is the name of the trend on Xiaohongshu, China’s version of Instagram. And what do animal employees earn? One job listing offers a 30 percent discount for pet owners. Another café owner offers a starting salary of five cans of cat food „after tax“ – of course.
