Companies are always on the lookout for a way to improve morale. When morale runs high, so does productivity. And employee turnover drops because people don't wish to leave places they enjoy working. Improving morale, however, can be perplexing to managers. Some do come up with interesting ideas.

In Ohio, a transportation company came up with a brilliant way to enhance the morale of its IT/Finance department. Management decided to adopt two kittens! The names given to the adorable little felines are "Debit and Credit." Considering a transportation company is always processing charge accounts, the monikers do fit.

The two kittens, a brother and sister, are rescue pets. Unlike other furry friends who find a forever home, these cats found themselves living in a forever workplace. No, they don't have to work 24/7 or even 9-5. They are there to lend support to the staff that puts in long hours.

The pets provide a way for employees to de-stress a little. Playing with the two cats can help someone calm does from a tough day. Watching the two little ones play can also bring a smile to someone's face. In our social media-driven world, it is no surprise someone took a video of the kittens playing. The video found its way to the internet, and people got a kick out of watching Debit and Credit bounce around the office on Reddit. Soon, an Instagram account followed. Now, the two rescue kittens gained a bit of celebrityhood. All this adds more fun to the office, which surely helps employee morale.

Improve some of your family and friends' morale by showing them the story of Debit and Credit. Maybe you should enlighten your co-workers or boss about the two kitten's new home. Perhaps the Ohio adoption may start a trend in offices across the globe.
