Where there is a box, there is a cat

[Trailblazer]

It’s hopeless, so I finally gave up.
Wherever I put a box, there is also a cat, sitting on all the important papers I put in that box.

Strangely, our cats don't do that much. They're not even interested in getting on the keyboards when we're on our computers...

My cats will walk all over the keyboard if I let them.

Some tape and some stamps will alleviate that problem.

I used to have a cat who (after I would come home from a trip) would jump in the suitcase almost immediately when I opened it up to unpack.

Sounds just like what a cat would do.... mine like to go in the grocery bags and boxes after I unpack them.

Are you sure they are really cats? Perhaps what you have are small dogs in disguise.

Nope, they are definitely cats...I think it may have to do with the fact that both were outside kitties for several years before we moved them inside. They also don't get on the counters, knock everything off the tables and shelves, or...well...no, everything else they do is definitely catish, and not dogish.

There's been research done that demonstrated that cats like to sit in an area that has four corners simply drawn on the floor.

Tape the box shut (with the cat inside), and mail it to anywhere.

Problem solved.

I have the opposite problem, when I'm packing one of ours repeatedly tries to pack herself.

That's because your computer is on the cats climbing frame.

Those are definitely outdoor cats! My cats are prissy indoor Persians and they live on counters and tables and atop any laptop that is available, be it open or closed!

Everything in this house is on the cats' climbing frame!

My wife and I often finish up our TV watching with 10 minutes of cats and dogs doing what they do. Some of the best are here - link cannot be embedded as media - feh

It doesn't even have to have corners:

Softpaw would sense we were going on a vacation trip, and lie down in back of the car in our driveway. She was a people cat, and didn't want us to go.
