Bibliothekar Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Office cats might be a nice idea. I know for sure, that there are library cats out there, so the concept works. You'd have to tell all employees not to bring treats, else the cats will be round as balls, but apart from that, they might be a nice addition to the team. And they could even help the animators with new wildlife (for the scene in How to train your dragon, when Toothless gets his new tail-wing for the first time, one animator brought his cat and stuck a ball of tape to its tail).

ShiningArmor Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 My teacher rescued a kitten that DE could adopt. I'm going to try to get a picture from her today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrAnticitizen Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 It would be a great idea for them to have a cat or dog wandering around to keep the teams morale, a bird is iffy to me since they tend to be very noisy and sometimes their noisiness gets irritating, but some birds are quiet.

ShiningArmor Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 They already have a carp working there, what else do you peoples want!? A cat and mouse so we can have a classic DE Tom and Jerry who are fighting over the fish. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShiningArmor Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 ok how about this, the DE office pet is a hayabusa (falcon) - the fastest animal in the world ! (fish and insects aside) not only would it kill vermin around the office and gouge out the eyes of employees it disliked but it would be symbolic of DEs lighting speed at fixing bugs, releasing new and exciting content, and pushing the boundaries of independent video game development Did you just suggest this because it's the same as your name?

Rakosta_Kai Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 The problem with that scenario is that it's a work place and everyone doesn't feel the same way about certain domesticated pets. You can't make "liking cats" a fair part of the job description. Likewise, it's not good for the pet, if it's just one, in a setting like that. This is an issue I'm very familiar with sadly... Frankly, I'd be surprised if their Creative staff hadn't already floated this idea around at some point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nurmetya Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Yeah Grizzly Bears are a west coast animal and maybe a lil to big and Polar Bears are too far north and protected to boot, a Black Bear might work you can find em' here in Ontario. Beavers and Bobcats as well, I'm honestly surpriesd no one said Moose which you can find here too but in small numbers sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
