REPORT: Stand Up Desks Are Better for Cat Health
Sitting all day can kill you. At least according to some reports. That’s why more feline office workers are opting to ditch the traditional cubicle setup in favor of so-called stand up desks.
The desks, which are essentially a raised platform on which you can prob your laptop or computer, force the user to stand while working. This greatly increases circulation and can increase kitty life expectancy by up to 40%. As an added bonus, the desks reportedly reduce on-the-job napping and can help combat feline obesity.

Despite Odds, Cat Reaches Healthy 2nd Birthday
When Curious George was just a kitten, vets learned that he had a broken pelvis.
“The poor wee thing was still managing to run and jump around on it!” says his foster parent Amie Whiting of Christchurch, New Zealand. “The vets were pretty adamant that he was going to be put down, but we said, ‘no way!’ ”
After two months in a crate with as little movement as possible (“Seriously, try keeping a 3-month-old spastic kitten in a cage!” says Whiting.), his bones had knit, and he was finally healed.
“Celebrating George’s second birthday after he was destined to be put down is pretty awesome, especially because he is such a kooky, weird little dude.”
