We want to see your pets working from home (WFH) - you can get involved by tweeting a pic, letting us know a bit about them and including the hashtag #petcoworker You could be added to our growing gallery of furry friends helping their owners going about their daily work.

In a world where many of us are now working from home, with the added help of our pets we thought we'd have a look at some of your WFH set ups.

Whether your cat is giving you cuddles while you're on a conference call, or your dog is distracting you from your daily duties, we want to see your pics!

Here are some of the best pics of listeners working from home with their pets:

Now take a look at ways to be more productive working from home (with or without your pet!):

1. Suitable working space

Set aside an area for working, preferably a desk or table with good light and a good Internet connection.


2. Listen to Clyde 1

If you're used to working in a busy office, then there's nothing worse that sitting in silence. So, why not get Clyde 1 on, we'll keep you up-to-date with the latest news, entertainment and of course the biggest hits and biggest throwbacks.

3. Make sure you take breaks

Make sure you take proper breaks from your screen, get up, have a walk about the house and if you have outside space take a break there if the weather is good.

4. Keep to your routine

Just because you can get up later, don't lie in. Make sure you still have breakfast and all your usual things before 'going to work'.


5. Get dressed!

It might sound obvious, but get dressed! Although there's a lot of temptation to just sit on the sofa in your pyjamas, you're probably killing your productivity if you do.


6. Internet and applications

Check your internet is fast enough for what you need and if it isn't what can you do about it?

You might be able to plug your computer in directly to your router using an Ethernet cable, or move closer to it.

Don't forget to also check all of your applications are accessible at home including VPN.


7. Don't feel cut off

Just because you're working from home doesn't mean you're cut off from your workmates. You can use applications like Slack, Skype, and Teams to communicate with your colleagues and friends via video. So don't feel alone!

8. Stay focussed

Don't be tempted to do household chores throughout your working day, just because you're at home. If you want to get some chores done, save them for your lunchtime or after you've logged off.


9. Stick to your hours

The temptation with working from home is for work and home life to merge into one, so make sure you properly log off when you finish work. 👋
