Who doesn't love a cat in a box, or a bag, or a basin, or indeed any inappropriately sized container 😁.

Pix!!

McVicar’s gorgeous.

Here's my favourite picture of her, looking impossibly innocent

Vixen has currently moved from the kitchen as a new cardboard box arrived. However she has pulled out the brown paper inside the box and curled up on that instead. Toad has decided if she doesn't want the box then he'll have it.

This is still my favourite picture of Leroy in a box 😁

Leroy looking super cool

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 10/05/2023 05:19

Absolutely love that photo of Leroy. Top Catting.on his part.

nettie434 · 10/05/2023 06:52

The cats in boxes photos are superb. Leroy is my winner by the teeniest of margins. Do you have two cats TheShellBeach? Linney is very handsome, as is McVicar.

Florissante · 10/05/2023 07:08

Leroy is the epitome of cool.

Supersimkin2 · 10/05/2023 11:22

I love Leroy very, very deeply. That’s it.

The vet’s ringing me back about Havelock. I’ve left a message about Wegovy for Cats.

I've done plenty of posts about Tobias lately, and I think Girlcat is feeling a bit left out. So here's a pic of her doing her favorite thing in the world - having belly scritches. It's also a good shot of her chocolate toe beans.

It's a shame Girlcat can't relax.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 10/05/2023 11:40

Very attractive chocolate toe beans. 🐾

Supersimkin2 · 10/05/2023 14:22

Scrumptious!

Allergictoironing · 10/05/2023 14:57

Softest cat fur I've ever felt. Even the big boss vet, who is a bit of a cat specialist, said she had the softest fur that HE had ever felt too. Very silky indeed.

I have got two cats - Linney and Emerald.

McVicar died two years ago, as did Buster.

When I saw the pictures of cats in boxes it reminded me of McVicar in the Ocean Feasts box.

Here is Emerald in a travelling bag. It's the nearest I've got to a current Cat In A Box picture:

Leroy in his box is definitely the winner.

TheShellBeach · 10/05/2023 15:14

Linney, about to walk in front of the telly:

Our current foster is a big unit of a newly ex-Tom. He has happily traded in his testicles for a pipe and slippers. He's the biggest cat in the house but a total softie at heart. We've called him Taz after the Tasmanian Devil character in Bugs Bunny. Here he is with a 9 month-old Pooka for scale.

TheShellBeach · 10/05/2023 15:27

Golly, he's a big fella.

Supersimkin2 · 10/05/2023 15:39

Taz is 🔥. Such a magnificent gentleman in his prime must have hundreds of kittens already. Please please keep him Long, he is clearly chilled and would be good for the younger generations.

Supersimkin2 · 10/05/2023 15:41

I have him if you don’t.

LostCats · 10/05/2023 16:13

It’s ma birfday!
I’m 3 today!
Mum knows because I came to her from one of her best friends so she even knows the time I was born!

@Supersimkin2 , how many cats would you have if all the ones you've offered to have were delivered to you today? Grin

Florissante · 10/05/2023 16:38

Happy birthday, @LostCats !
