One, only one day on duty de spy
In the 1960s, the CIA launched a program code-named "Acoustic Kitty" to spy on the Kremlin and Soviet embassies by implanting bugging devices in the cat's ear canals.

Through nearly an hour of surgery, the skilled veterinarian successfully installed the eavesdropping device on the cat, allowing the cat to record and transmit the sounds of the surrounding environment through the device.

The cat's first task was to cross the park to a bench outside the Soviet compound and conduct an eavesdropping test.
However, when the cat jumped out of the CIA car and crossed the road, it was hit and killed by a taxi on the spot.
At the same time, due to the controversial nature of this animal experiment, the project was cancelled in 1967.
According to people familiar with the matter, the program may have cost $15 million to $20 million ...
Does this really cost so much, could it be another doge?
Two, passive slack de postman
In the 1870s, the Belgian Domestic Cat Promotion Association trained 37 domestic cats to deliver mail.
They tied waterproof bags containing letters around the cat's neck and sent them to the countryside a few miles from home.
According to the March 1876 New York Times, one of the very enterprising cats spent 5 hours arriving home, and the other cats played with it first, not very caring about the destination... But in the end, they all found their way home within 24 hours.

But in the end, this plan was not implemented, and it may be that the cat was not interested in this task and was fascinated by the flower world
Three, just sell cute de police

This cute little kitten, named Iemon, was the first police cat in Miyazu, Kyoto, Japan.
Once a stray cat, ta was incorporated at two months of age and spent most of his time at the desk of the pension station in the police station.
Why this help desk?

Because of Japan's "serious" aging, scammers often call the elderly, pretend to be their children, and ask them for large sums of money on the pretext that they have an accident or are in urgent need of money.
Sometimes the deceived elderly are often difficult to talk about, and Iwayman's main responsibility is to help the deceived elderly soothe their emotions and make them feel more comfortable when talking to the police.
After all, there is a scientific basis for cats to help people stabilize their emotions!

Every afternoon, the honorary mayor is said to go to a nearby restaurant and drink water mixed with catnip from a wine glass or a Margarita wine glass.
Stubbs has a high approval rating because they never raise taxes or interfere with local businesses. At the same time, during his tenure, Stubbs also attracted a large number of tourists to visit, and the places he frequented became tourist attractions.
Nagley's general store was used as a "mayor's office" during his tenure.

Maybe these are the reasons why he can be re-elected for 20 years

Larry has been the Chief Mousetrap officer in the UK Cabinet Office at 10 Downing Street since 2011.
While the downing street official website describes Larry's duties as "greeting guests at the door, checking the safety defenses in the room, and testing the quality of the nap of antique furniture", Larry is actually a hard-working cat who wears several hats, after all, there is too much to do...

Super popular Larry
Image from: wiki
Larry is also very influential, and in his second year in office, an adoption agency revealed that because Larry is so popular, more people come to adopt cats than before.
But the cat is not complete, and his relationship with colleagues is not good...
However, Larry and Palmerston, the chief rat catcher in Whitehall, had a strained relationship and often beat each other up

The existence of TA has made the historically precipitated Forbidden City add a little more lively temperament, attracting more young people to feel the history and looking for cats, and the tickets to the Forbidden City are more popular

The Forbidden City Cultural Creation also created many lovely works inspired by them, and maintained and repaired the Forbidden City through the income from cultural creation.

Now there are about 200 royal cats living in the Forbidden City, selling cute and interacting with tourists during the day, and having to inspect whether there is a rat invasion on the site at night, which can be said to be an "excellent employee"
The business is very skilled
