DID SOMEONE SAY BOXING DAY?

This would probably be our favorite day of the year, but everyday is Boxing Day for a cat, at least at our house. Mau and Calista Jo box each day before breakfast and dinner in order to work up an appetite.

Oh wait…this isn’t that kind of boxing? It’s when we have cardboard boxes to explore and nap and play in. Wow, that’s even better. We think Dad already took the ones from Christmas out to the alley as today is paper recyling day. But I bet we can find some others around the house, or at least some photos from previous boxing events.

Here’s Calista showing how much fun it is to play in a box. In this instance she was trying to catch her tail.

Astrid looking defiant as she dares any of us to steal her box.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not all boxes are created equal. Some are nice and roomy and others make for quite a tight fit.

Lily Olivia tries to hide in a cupcake box. Luckily for both the humans and Lily, the cupcakes had been eaten. Though, any of us would have happily cleaned icing out of her fur.

Mauricio believes that the biggest cat deserves the biggest box all to himself.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Fiona (upper right) checks the inside of a promising box while wondering if Calista Jo (left) or Lisbeth (bottom right) plan to challenge her for right of occupancy.

Misty May finds that the top of a box can be as purrfect for a nap as the inside.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Giulietta finds a box to be a great place for a bath.

The kitty with the catnip wins, so Lisbeth is not letting anybody (including Mauricio) near the Ham-mick box, which just happens to be laced with the stuff. 

Hope all our friends have a great Boxing Day. If you overdid it with the festivities yesterday, just remember: A box is a great place for a long, winter’s nap!

Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
