The Kittinterns!
Learning business so they can keep your company agile and tenacious
The Goal
Everyone knows that all businesses need to be ready for whatever the market throws at them and to do that, they need employees that are hungry for profits (and tuna). Here at Kittinterns, we take young, fresh-faced kittens and give them that killer instinct that gets them ahead in the business world. Then they can put that ferocity to work for you!
The Organization
Kittinterns is a rescue organization working with Orange County Animal Services to foster kittens and adult cats so they can grow, be socialized, and adopted to loving homes.

Work Fatigue
Sometimes we all don’t feel like going to work. And on those days, maybe we clock in, even when aren’t technically all there. But it still counts! Manny here is taking that to heart. He’s at work…somewhat. But that arm is all he needs to punch the time clock and get credit for being there.

Never Sell Alone
The business world is full of bullies. No one really likes it, except the bullies, but it’s true. We work hard at Kittinterns Inc to weed out employees like that, but other companies aren’t so stringent. We sell in teams so when the competitor shows up, tries to make us look bad, and even makes…
-
Promotion!
Sometimes you see an intern that just has something special. They’re a natural leader or are gifted with a special talent for your industry. In this case, Manny distinguished himself as the best at getting gains, which is one of the primary focuses of Kittinterns, Inc. So we had to promote him to head intern!…

New Intern Acclimatization
Starting a new job is tough for anyone. For our interns, this is their first full-time job, so it can be especially difficult. They’re used to the college life of sleeping until noon and going on milk benders all night long. We try to be understanding and ease them into it, but poor Jack here…

Introducing Mama Pep and her Boys!
Hi all, we’re back! And we have the sweetest little lady and her oh so cuddleable boys. Mama Pep is a young mom but she’s doing an incredible job with her babies. She’s always very concerned when we take them for their company-mandated training(weigh-ins) but she also volunteers for all the work(pets) we can give…
-
Dictation
Many interns can be expected to take dictation from more senior members of the team. This offers them a great opportunity to see the process that big decisions take from inception to execution. It also allows those with experience to pass that on to newer team members and gives the new members the opportunity to…

Back to School
Monday is time to go back to work and school and Agnes isn’t a big fan. She conveniently forgets that the rest of us have been back since last Tuesday, but she does that a lot. No one works harder than she does.

Too Cool for Christmas
We get it Agnes, it’s Monday and no one likes Mondays. But this isn’t just some normal Monday, it’s Christmas! Just after this was taken, she got her stocking filled with catnip mice and even some Christmas chimken! From all of us here at Kittinterns, have a great holiday or just a better-than-usual Monday!

The Holiday Corporate Ladder
One of the most important parts of being an intern is showing initiative and spirit. Agnes is always up to help and this time of year there’s lots to do! So when we asked for volunteers to hang some garland, she was the first paw up. The entire time she was climbing, she was humming…

Team Building
Like all corporations, Kittinterns, Inc. occasionally goes on retreats for team building. This lets our interns get to know each other, schmooze with upper-management (well not top management, they’re exempt), and show off skills they don’t get to in the office! One of the big goals is to demonstrate to our teams how to work…
