Yngver composed with style: Now, what about cardboard boxes? She loves to chew on those too. Especially a nice, comfy brand new shoebox. lol I think if some pet foods contain cellulose, a little cardboard isn't going to hurt. |

... Well, our box-lover is 12 and half pounds, but it still seems that the smaller the box, the more she wants to try to squeeze into it, and then she sits in it purring with her pudge hanging out over the sides. I used to have another cat like that--the shoebox was only fun if it was almost too snug to squeeze into. Wonder why. Our slim cats, btw, don't much care about shoeboxes. My cat likes to be enclosed--not closed up, but enclosed. She prefers smaller boxes to ones that would actually fit her (except for her travelling cage, of course) and I think it's because she feels safe (hidden) in the smaller ones. I also noticed that when she sleeps, she likes to sleep in nooks and crannies where she's surrounded by at least three sides. Like in the nook of the back of my knee when I sleep on my side. I think it might be related to her being a stray at one time (probably for most of her life before I got her). She probably had to find places to hide, with one side open as an escape route. It's kind of sad, actually, how she still has a lot of habits from her stray-hood even though she's been living a comfortable life with us for the last three-ish years. rona -- ***For e-mail, replace .com with .ca Sorry for the inconvenience!*** |
