No matter how small the box...

... Nikki must needs squeeze into it. The photos aren't very good, but I
had to darken them because the flash made evrything glaring white. You
can just make out the edges of the box, though Nikki covers most of them
with her body. ;o)

Why, oh why do they do that?? It's like the smaller the box, the more they want
to lie in it. Those pictures are precious. Nikki is so pretty, her coat is so
shiny.

Why ask me? I have no idea! ;o) Frank, I think I understand pretty well,
but Nikki has remained a complete mystery to me through her 16 years
with me. Why does she love to squeeze into tight places? Why does she
not like the expensive tent I bought for her 15th birthday any more,
though she loved it when it was new (maybe that's why). Why does she paw
at things with her claws just a liiiittle out? And look at me or stare
into space and puur the whole time? Why does she make a huge fuss and
purr and stand on her head when I put food in the bowls, and then walk
away without even sniffing it? Why does she sit beside me and purr her
little head off, then if I acknowledge her presence, stalk off in a
huff? Etc etc etc. I suppsoe it's just because she can.

These are priceless, Marina!  Think the 3rd photo is just the cat's meow!

I love how her ear is squished in in that pic. :oP

LOL - it's a good thing I already knew that third picture was of a
cat, otherwise I wouldn't have any idea WHAT I was looking at!

She's looking very pretty, and what do you mean, she doesn't fit? She
fits perfectly! :)

Um, well. Maybe it doesn't show so well in the pics, but there were
considerable amounts of Nikki spilling over the edges.

Yes, but *she* thinks she fits, and isn't that what counts?

I guess it is, to Nikki at least. She seems to think that, as long as
she can fit her paws into a box, she can fit her whole body into it.

I'm starting to get ready to mail Yule presents overseas to Germany
(they have to be in the mail by the first week in November) and I'm
having a devil of a time keeping Tyche and Kumani out of the boxes.
They've got the same compulsion to wedge themselves into whatever box
they can find.

It's a petite (though 'fluffy') cat in a very, very small box. :o)

uh, Marina, what box?
Hehe, I can see it, but Nikki covers it so well it might as well be not
there. You're right, Jazz is the same. Anything that can be sat on or sat in
will be.

Yes, the way she even scrunched her ear into the box. Hehehe.
