A man in China earned $23,000 in a single month by providing cat-sitting services, sometimes needing to feed as many as 55 cats each day.
Finding someone to look after your pets when you go on vacation or travel abroad can be challenging. If you don’t have family nearby who can help, you’ll likely need to pay for a professional pet sitter.
Finding someone to care for your pet while you’re away – whether it’s a pet sitter or boarding at a kennel or cattery – can be costly. But if you enjoy pet care, it’s a great way to earn some extra money!
Huan Cong, a resident of Shanghai, China, earned $23,000 over the Lunar New Year by single-handedly caring for 1,000 cats.
$23,000 to look after 1000 cats
According to the South China Morning Post, Cong has been providing cat-sitting services for nearly ten years. Despite keeping his prices the same, his business has seen a significant increase in earnings this year. Cong and his team of four employees remained in Shanghai during the recent holiday period.
Okay, so this guy absolutely crushed it, making a year’s worth of money in just one month! But honestly, it took a serious toll on him. He told a newspaper he was running on about three hours of sleep a night the whole time, and at one point he was taking care of fifty-five cats! It was a crazy month, to say the least.
We helped 270 families last Spring Festival, but this year that number grew to 320 – an increase of 18%. We anticipate around 25% overall growth by the end of the holiday, and we expect to earn about 160,000 yuan just from our cat-feeding services, he said.
It’s not just Cong who’s getting attention for animal-related content online. A baby monkey named Punch has become an internet sensation after being left by his mother at a zoo.
The baby monkey has been attacked by fellow monkeys in the enclosure, and even has a bodyguard now.
