Cats in boxes
Why do cats like to hide in boxes?
Sadie loves a box, in fact she is a cat who will sit in any small space given half a chance,
the microwave,
the washing machine,
shopping bags
anywhere small dark and confined.
Why do cats like to hide in boxes?
Apparently this goes back to their feral past, because cats feel safe in small spaces, they can sleep peacefully there and are less likely to be attacked when in a small space than when out in the open. Being a predator they can also watch out for their prey from their hiding place with less chance of being seen.
Cat quote of the day.
“I love cats because I enjoy my home; and little by little, they become its visible soul.” – Jean Cocteau
