Company offering employees $300 for pet adoption

Aug. 11 (UPI) -- A Texas-based company that provides insurance comparison services announced employees are being offered a $300 stipend to adopt pets.

The Zebra, which bills itself as "the nation's leading insurance comparison site," said it has begun offering employees $300 to help cover adoption fees for "welcoming a new cat or dog into their family."

The company said employees are also encouraged to take paid time off -- "pawternity leave" -- to help their new pet settle into their new home.
