The purr-fect job for cat lovers is on the island of Syros

For all you cat lovers, the purr-fect job is waiting for you on the stunning Greek Island of Syros, as you could be the new caretaker to oversee the cat sanctuary with its 55 kittens.

Not only will you have the joy of being with so many cats, but you will also get paid for it and be able to stay in a fully paid for modern little house with an amazing view of the Aegean Sea.

The announcement was made by God's Little People Cat Rescue's Facebook page.

"A very special position and living circumstance on offer on a little Greek island called Syros (a small paradise no less!) for a mature and genuinely passionate cat lover who knows how to handle many cats and would love their company!! I am looking for someone who can take over the daily running of my Greek cat sanctuary in my absence... You’ll no doubt thrive best if you are the type of person who appreciates nature and likes tranquility - and rest comfortably in your own company. That said, you’ll never feel lonely in the company of the cats and you’ll be expected to live with a small handful of cats in your house. From experience, the job is most suitable for someone 45+ years of age, who’s responsible, reliable, honest, practically inclined - and really, with a heart of gold! Apart from feeding the cats, the cats will also need heaps of love and attention."
