Box o' kitty

Big Disclaimer: this is not stinky. I found this photo, and borrowed it for illustration purposes from someone named Llora and it's on a web site for cats who are addicted to boxes. No kidding. Really. Stop laughing, I didn't make that up.

We have somehow acquired a box (about the size of an old record album and about 3 inches high) with the word PHILOSOPHY written on the side of it. I suspect we, being utter and incurable nerds, thought that it might one day come in handy for some ironic and hard to understand "humor."

But, we'll never know because Stinky has decided that this box is her new home, fort, space ship, hover craft, etc. I picked the photo above because it looks like Stinky. Although, the above kitty's box looks more like a coffin.

It did occur to me that perhaps Stinky hopes that we will take her box, with her still in it, and put it on the curb and some nice TOTALLY HUMAN family will find her and take pity. I did toss a kitty toy in the box with her - and she threw it out immediately.

Or, what if Stinky has something more nefarious planned for the box? Maybe she's seeing how big it is and working out how much of my lifeless body she'll be able to stash in it after she kills me in my sleep? Will the trash guy think to look for monkey remains in a box labeled "philosophy?"

Great, now I'm going to have nightmares. I bet that was part of her plan all along. Evil Stinky!!
