Unprofessional is fast becoming my least favourite English word. Pretty much the only times I hear it is
1. Referring to abuse somehow implying that workplace etiquette violations and their consequences supersede civil law
2. Referring to perfectly harmless and normal things that aren't part of, but also don't conflict with getting shit done -
I hate stuff like this. The cat's not impeding your ability to work, or attend your webcall, so why the hell should it matter?
To me it's the same thing as someone's personal style. Having a ring in my lip and dressing casually isn't going to stop me doing my job, but I know some places wouldn't let me come into work like this. -
@lorentz unprofessional probably mostly apply when it's literally sabotaging the quality of the work someone do. People who are usually unprofessional will try to compensate in some other way and will push their insecurities on others. To me this is the annoying part... working with worthless assholes.

@TrevorTheRat Mine too!
Here I present the debian cat
I got my reward stress ball about a week ago, but it vanished within minutes of opening the package 😧
Toda...
I attended a webcall with the cat on my shoulder, some manager complained it was not professional.
Now, I do not know who that was so I'll have to just shoot in the crowd and take innocent victims, but from now I'll attend every single call with as many cats on screen as possible. Possible outcomes, and both are fine by me, either they cut down the amount of unnecessary calls -as to limit the amount of catness on their screen- or learn to grow the fuck up because unlike some retard I get paid for working, not for busting the balls to the people that actually work.
