This was the week dominated by the most recently delivered box from Amazon, as you’ll see in the photos.

Kali was Alpha Cat as far as the box went. She noticed it sometime in Day 1, and quickly hopped in and settled down. Then she began tearing up the brown packing paper in the box, methodically shredding it into smaller and smaller bits. Not all at once. A few minutes here, a few minutes later, in between naps, food, etc. That process has taken most of the week.

Kali’s work apparently turned the box, and it’s shredded paper, into a perfect cat nest.

She displayed real skill. The shredded paper all stayed in the box, not tossed around onto the floor. So this was intentional!

It was like she was preparing to welcome kittens, although she lost the necessary plumbing long ago.

When Kali vacated the box, all the cats checked it out, but only Kiko climbed in and made herself comfortable, apparently participating in the box worship.

So at least for now, we can’t throw the box away. We had to move it to clean, but we’ll have to return it to its prime spot in the living room.

Some boxes are good for an hour, then lose all appeal. But this box appears to have some special allure, although I don’t know what it might be.
