Summary
PagerDuty introduces OkCats, a whimsical feature that embeds calming cat photos into incident alerts, aiming to soothe users during stressful moments like late-night alerts or when dealing with FOMO. The service integrates with PagerDuty-enabled platforms by extending the events API to include images and links to cat photos, which can be set up through the Add Service page. This playful addition is designed to make the experience of receiving alerts more pleasant by leveraging the comforting presence of cats, promising a fuzzier wake-up call at any hour.
