No sooner is the box unpacked than your cat has taken total possession of it. If there’s one thing that can be said about cats, it’s that they love tiny cardboard enclosures.

Indeed, pet owners can deliberately use these as stress relievers, while paying attention that any sharp edges are torn away or sanded off and that there aren’t any staples that could scratch the cat.
