Have you ever noticed how much your cat loves boxes? Whether it’s a tiny shoebox or a big delivery carton, cats can’t resist jumping in! But why do they love boxes so much? Let’s find out—and see how to make box time even more fun for your kitty in Delhi, Mumbai, or Bangalore!
1. Boxes Feel Safe and Cozy
Cats love to hide because, in the wild, they’re both hunters and prey. A box is like a little safe house—it keeps them hidden and snug. It’s their own mini home where they can relax and watch the world!
Fun Fact: A study showed that cats in shelters feel less stressed when they have a box to hide in.
2. Boxes Make Them Feel Like Hunters
Boxes are perfect for playing! Cats use them to pretend they’re hunting, just like they would in the wild. When your cat peeks out of a box and jumps on your foot, they’re acting like a tiny tiger.
Tip: Hide a toy or a treat in the box and watch your cat turn into a super sneaky hunter!
3. Boxes Help Them Relax
Believe it or not, boxes can calm your cat down. The small space makes them feel secure, like a big hug. That’s why they run to a box during loud noises, like thunderstorms, or when new people visit.
It’s like their cozy little hideout!
4. Boxes Are Super Fun to Play In
Cats love the fun of boxes! They chew them, scratch them, and jump in and out. It’s like a playground for your kitty—full of silly moments that make you laugh.
Bet you have a cute photo of your cat in a box on your phone!
