Get paid to hang out with a bunch of cute cats on a Greek island

Get paid to hang out with a bunch of cute cats on a Greek island Get paid to hang out with a bunch of cute cats on a Greek island Move over, “Mamma Mia” - we’ve found a new Greek island dream. There’s a group on the tiny island of Syros looking for a cat caretaker and we’re all over it.God’s Little People Cat Rescue  on the Greek Cycladic island of Syros is a cat sanctuary and adoption center that houses 55 rescue cats and feeds an entire colony of stray cats on the island.Now, we’d be tempted by anywhere calling itself a cat sanctuary, but we gotta say this is a pretty plush deal. In addition to getting paid for your cat labor (four hours a day), you’ll get a little seaside house with a view of the Aegean Sea and a peaceful garden.Your cat duties would include caring for 55 cats - bonus points if you’re a vet - and generally loving felines. The  job description on Facebook reads,  â€œYou will at times be expected to trap or handle a feral or non-sociable cat, so knowing something about a cats psychology too is important + cat-whispering skills should come natural to you.”The shelter has two policies animal lovers love: no cages and no killing. A big part of the job is working with local vets on the island to make sure all the kitties stay in tip-top shape.“You’ll no doubt thrive best if you are the type of person who appreciates nature and likes tranquility - and rest comfortably in your own company,” said the job posting. “That said, you’ll never feel lonely in the company of the cats and you’ll be expected to live with a small handful of cats in your house.”The posting also makes sure to clarify that this  is not  a joke and that cat lovers should definitely apply. The job would start in November and last six months. Six months living among the kitties on a Greek island?
