I've had a busy weekend gardening - well my fiance Mike has!I left some empty boxes from our garden furniture on the patio and Charlie just couldn't resist climbing inside.
But what is it about boxes that appeal to cats so much?
Well, if it is small in area and has at least three sides, your cat will probably climb inside and make himself comfortable.
It isn't difficult to imagine why cats like being enclosed. They feel snug and protected in smaller, defined places.
Cats have a natural need for warmth and protection, their ever-present instinct tells them to be alert to dangers that might sneak up on them when they are dozing.
If the enclosure has a top, that's even better.
You should make sure your pet has a variety of snug places where he can curl up and take a nap.
We've also been cutting down brambles and weeds at the bottom of our garden.
Charlie is not happy - he was hiding out in the shrubbery keeping a close eye on us tearing down his empire!
