Office Managers
Frank, Cornelius, and Gorp
Cornelius, a handsome tabby, and Frank, a friendly, big-hearted dog, are the official office managers of our family business. While they spend most of their time napping, they are serious about their jobs—Cornelius specializes in quality control (ensuring all laps are a perfect napping temperature) and Frank excels at morale, greeting every visitor with a wagging tail. Their brother, Gorp, is a more elusive manager who prefers to work from the shadows, making sure everything runs smoothly from a safe distance. Together, they form the heart and soul of our small, family-owned company.
