Bartleby, my 15 lbs guy, always tries to squeeze himself into small boxes.
My cats take turns sitting in a new box, it seems to go in the pecking
order, too. Antonio likes to eat cardboard, so he spends more time chewing
the sides than sitting in it. I don't think he injests it, he just shreds
cardboard and paper by pulling on it with his teeth. It's weird.

I've also noticed there are Box Rules in households with cat and dog
playmate. It seems to be understood fully by both species.

The party of the first part, hereinafter called Dog, may chase the party
of the second part, hereinafter called Cat, throughout all areas except
as mentioned. If Dog tags Cat, they may wrestle, although the output is
not predetermined and Dog undertakes the activity at Dog's risk.

If, during the course of the chase, Cat goes into any structure that can
be construed as Box, including, for example, the bottom of a soft drink
can carton cut almost to the bottom, Cat becomes immune to tag. An
invisible wall projects upwards to the ceiling from the vertical edges
of Box. Dog may communicate with Cat through these walls, as long as Dog
does not touch Cat.

Howard that is so true!! And I laughed when I read it.

Me too! In my house, and even in the apt I used to live in,
the safe place was the kitchen. It seemed to have the same rules as
Howard's box, because no matter who was chasing who, when the
chasee runs into the kitchen, the chaser stops at the threshold.
Shadow used that rule to his advantage many many times because he
hated being chased.

I bought a set of glasses and Shamrock took over the box. He marked
it all up with his face scents and re-marks it every time Bonnie
tries to get in it. She got in. Once. Only once. Shamrock doesn't
like to share.

What a cute picture! But at first I'd thought you'd gotten new
*eye*glasses and was pondering the size of that box! :-P
