Cats could give a quick morale boost, but you’ll want to keep them as a controlled variable, not a loose variable. If you schedule quiet hours and a designated play area, it’s like a small focus group—you get the positivity without the chaos. Just make sure they’re not chewing on cables or snooping into confidential files. A well‑managed purr‑session can be a useful tool, not a wild card.

Sounds solid—just remember a cat’s curiosity can turn a tidy break room into a claw‑scratched mess if you’re not vigilant. A quick check‑in after the first week might be worth it; a small, controlled experiment usually gives the best data on productivity impact. Good luck with the operation.
