This kitten is a certified 'paw-ssenger princess' as it rides shotgun every day with its owner at work.

The ginger moggie has won the heart of pupils as it lounges on driver Sompong Kongpetchsak's console while he makes rounds at the Kasem Bundit University Romklao Campus in Bangkok, Thailand.

Footage shows passengers playing with the adorable feline as it lay on its green cushion next to Sompong.

The cat-loving driver said he takes the cat along for rides as he plies his route at the campus from 1 to 5 pm.

There has been a trend of pet cats and dogs joining their owners at work in Thailand. In Bangkok, a tattoo artist's caring dog hugged customers to comfort them during sessions, while a cat gave out free massages to women receiving beauty treatments at another clinic.
