Happy #NationalCatDay! We’re still away from @Blizzard_Ent campus, but let’s roll call and see who’s around. Look Hickory, you’re famous! That? It’s Thursday, it’s the trash truck. You’re okay. Play with Doomhammer. #blizzlife

Cats on campus are not a rare sight. (Well, they are these days as we work from home but you know what I mean). We have dozens of registered cats. They get an official pet tag (excuse my janky pic) and their owners must declare faction loyalty since you can't pick one of each...

Say hi to Ken (Orange) & Anji (Tux) from the @Warcraft QA, Encounters Team.

"Both formerly feral, love to wrestle all time- both are named after fighting game characters and they certainly live up to their monikers everyday. "

(Round two...FIGHT!)

"King Montezuma the 1st, Lord of all Cats. Rules with an iron paw. Heir to the Ives house." - http://Battle.net  & Online Products - Shop

(You know it's a good pic when the outrageous couch octopus is the 3rd most interesting thing in the shot)

Rincewind (Ginger) & Taz (Tux) @BlizzardCSEU_EN

"Adopted brothers from an Animal Shelter, busy helping with the whelping infestation and having serious naps."

That's what #NationalCatDay is all about. There's plenty of love waiting to be adopted, just like these little oozes.

Arthas (white cat) and Jaina (grey cat) tirelessly helping the Shared Game Engine Team.

"Relations between the cats are cool and civil... shhhh they think we don’t see them cuddling."

"Mr. Percy Weasley tries very hard to help."

This is help we all need. Great job, Percy, the @Warcraft Tools Team loves you sweetie but mama needs to log in. Fine, one treat but then seriously....okay two treats.

"This is Tracer. She loves getting attention from the @PlayOverwatch Server Team, snuggling with mom, and watching Great British Baking show."

Must be bread week in the tent because someone's making biscuits HEY-O!

"Mischief (named so well before the WoW cat pet!) Blizzard CS - Cork office. Lives up to his name every day. My work from home buddy!"

Ahem, officially international cat day now.

"This is Mushu, level 14 blood elf rogue. When not helping the @Warcraft Server Team, Mushu cries until we turn on YouTube so he can fall asleep at lunch listening to ASMR bird videos!"

Same, Mushu. 2020, right? Gonna need your playlist.

"This is Bronte, level 8 draenai monk. Dad's on the @Warcraft Server Team, and kitten is for the Alliance and the White Sox, just like her momma Kris!"

Bronte, even though Mushu's napping, level 14 is level 14. Don't try it...

"Barley enjoys casting Hibernate with his moonkin friend and the @Warcraft Dungeon Art Team."

I'm starting to suspect Barley is only pretending not to know about the rested XP cap...

"This is Pipis ("Squeaky" in Swedish), so named because he asks for food often and loudly. He's a rescue cat who decided to adopt us and the Blizzard CS Team here in Cork!"

Well this is only everything. And if you didn't just think "ooh little paws together!" you're lying.

"Penny from Talent Acquisition at Blizzard Cork. Also goes by House Panther, Sassy Shadow, Fashionable Gargoyle, Tiny Moody Night Dragon, Zoom Meeting interrupter.

Fun Fact: in Ireland a black cat crossing your path is lucky!"

"Puddin is a spooky old lady who loves to sleep, interrupt @BlizzardCS Admin Support Zoom calls, and taunt anyone who dares to pet her! She's polydactyl and has really cute thumbs, too!"

(and she doesn't even know Halloween is coming up, this is just how she rocks. Total badass)

"Tonks and Tiny Kitty @Diablo IV QA! One is sassy, one is super shy, both helping me survive 2020 with extra cuddles. "

(casual background t-rex is killing me)

Tau & Boba from @Diablo IV Tech Art/Corp Apps!

"Tau (Siamese Mix) is a huge momma's boy. All he wants is to be held & cuddled. He will yell about it. Boba's missing nearly all his teeth! He will yell across the house asking us to stop everything to help him find his mouse toy."

"This is Emeriss from @Warcraft Classic QA. Master of turning off routers and computers. She likes to sprint around the living room at 4am and wake you up with cuddles right before the alarm goes off."

'Yes honey, but lemme sleep a bit longer. Go catch a Scarab Lord.'

"Luna loves seafood, so she’s a crab for Halloween! She’s also a bit of a goofball, so she’s got a spooky jester’s collar too Only 9 months old, but her Zoomies are a sight to behold. We call her the Black Blur sometimes. She 'helps' out the Digital Marketing Team!"

Morley (left) and Kiki (right) checking in from the @Diablo IV Tech Art Team! And there is no truth to the rumor they started the 'Spiderman pointing' meme. None at all.

"Garlic (brown) & Cheese (gray) make sure @Diablo IV's in top shape! Garlic likes to break things she can't fix and helps keep the game working correctly...somehow. Cheese is a giant flirt and mostly makes sure all the outfits are cute, even though that's not actually his job."

"This is Annarchy. We’re on @Warcraft, and she definitely lives up to her name."

It's always the ones with the best 'but I'm innocent' faces...

"Pancakes and Murderface having a snuggle. Blizzard QA!"

Excuse me, I have some hunter pets to rename.

"Ares from @Warcraft QA! A total daddy's boy when it comes to everything. Never leaves my side except when he goes after his favorite toy... my shoe laces When he's not playing with laces he's trying to find a comfortable spot on my keyboards..."

"Picard from @Warcraft's Tools Team! At his battle station he likes to help playtest the game and make sure he gets the most pets possible. Don't let the open belly fool you, he will attack when he seems the cutest."

'Make it so...sleepy.'
