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.
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.
- 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.
- 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
Lookit all the boxes of every size and color. MOL! I used to love boxes a lot more when I was younger. Now they hit too close to home. HAH! At least that’s what TW sez.
I’m envious. Boxing day is the best and you look like you’re having so much fun.
You guys sure have LOTS of boxes to choose from! That’s OUR kind of Boxing Day too!
Wow I love this – so many boxes!! Our kitten would be nuts with that lot – you are right though, some can be a tight fit – so our sisfur Sienna hits the big paper shopping bags!!

Boxing Day is our favorite day of the year. Of course at our house there is almost always a box of some kind available so I guess we could call it boxing year. No matter, we loves boxes.
Oddly enough, I am not a box fan. I secretly believe one might eat me once I got inside. I prefer to nap atop them. Sorry we are tardy with our Merry Christmas wishes, but the Human ABANDONED me as you probably know. It was just an outrage! We hope you had a funtastic holiday! XOXOXO
Hope you had a Happy Boxing Day. We think it is great that they named a whole day after cats playing in boxes MOL. Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S)
Now that is idea of a great Boxing Day!!!

Now there are some fine boxes
A lovely bunch of boxes, sitting in the hall.
Kitties in each one of them, kitties in them all.
Kitties love the boxes, they love to hide and play.
Wouldn’t it be great if everyday was Boxing day?
Ta da…

Hehehehe you have a box for all occasions,xx Speedy
Gosh I think each of you found the purrfect box for your purposes! I had my pick of boxes as there’s no competition around here for box-possession with me being the one and only box boy. I had fun going from one to the next until I found the perfect one….and that’s where I was most of the day yesterday…….tee hee
Post-Holiday Hugs, Sammy
