It’s no secret, cats just love boxes! But have you ever wondered why? Well, there are a number of theories:
– The enclosed space replicates a cave or den which a cat would use in the wild. When you sleep 15-18 hours a day, it makes sense to do it somewhere secret.
– The smell of plants and trees however faint is attractive and relaxing to cats.
– The cardboard is significantly warmer than a cold floor… plus its chew-able, scratch-able and tonnes of FUN!
Recycle your zooplus box into a den for your cat and send us a pic!
I always make use of the boxes.
Remember to remove the staple from the top flap.
I get a dish/plate, draw a circle on a few sides of the box and cut out some holes, and tape the lid down. You can even get a couple of boxes and make a two-story playhouse by gluing one on top of another and cutting a hole out between them.
Then just sit back and let your sweet little bengal trash the boxes….
