Why do cats like cardboard boxes?

[Catherine]

Quote:Another trick is to be very interested and busy with the soft bed you want the cat to go in, while ignoring the cat of course. Especially if you put a newspaper over it and pretend to read the paper.

That is brilliant. Cats can't resist sitting right where we want to read. As long as the cat never figures out it is actually a cat bed, you might be able to trick it into sleeping there. If the cat ever gets the idea that you want it in the bed it will never look at the bed again.

Cats eh! They are such a stubborn quirky creature, but they are never boring.
