Also as an animal lover (2 dogs and a cat) just fyi on your computers; animal hair can cause problems if the computers are not cleaned. Keep on eye on the computer fans and make sure they don't have animal (or people) hair around them.As for the collection, I won't go into the problems with having animals :) Enjoy

The cat will take charge. You will not need to worry about that decision.
He/she will inform you of when feeding and scooping is necessary by doing all of the things you have tried to teach it not to do.
They will pay for themselves, at least in the sense of office enjoyment, assuming no one is allergic. You will all become deft at shielding your keyboards from their curious attentions.
Enjoy.

Subject: office cats?
Do any of you have office cats? We are considering the adoption of one, and wondered what are all the ramifications. Does one person take charge? Who pays the bills? Who does the feeding and scooping?
