I ARE IN UR BOX TOP. NOW IT MINE.
I cannot for the life of me figure out what it is about boxes and box lids that fascinates the cat. Put the lid of a box on the floor, and Mycah's in it faster than you can say "Hey, get out of that box top."
Mycah grumpily leaves no doubt that it is her box top.

She still, however, attempts to "make nice" for a closeup.

I plan to exhange the box for a smaller one in a couple of days; I'll give her progressively smaller box tops every few days, just to see if I can ultimately get her to perch herself on a 3x5 card.
For more feline (and other critter) goodness, I recommend regular visits to I Can Has Cheezburger?, which I found thanks to my good friend Ith of Absinthe & Cookies. Be prepared to laugh.
Friday Ark! Go!
Sunday: Carnival of the Cats! Where? This, That & The Other Thing.

My life has not been the same since I found 'I Can Has Cheezeburger' I now caption my cat, the neighbour's cats, the neighbours... Nin and I talk to each other in LOLcat.
OH! You'll like this! Here, this is from a friend:
Here's the link:

And for us geeks (an excerpt):
It is can be LOLCODE time plz?
They're in ur Intarwebs, creating a programming language. The
attack of the lolcats has spilled over to programming, with LOLCODE, a
language based on the mangled grammar of lolcats. Pull up a buckit and
I'll help wif ur understanding of LOLCODE.
I HAS A CHEEZBURGER
Here, we're declaring CHEEZBURGER as a variable. Let's take a look
at a short script that will iterate CHEEZBURGER and print out its
value:
HAI
I HAS A CHEEZBURGER ITZ 1
IM IN YR LOOP
VISIBLE "I has dis many: " N CHEEZBURGER
IZ CHEEZBURGER BIGGER THAN 11 O RLY?
YA RLY
GTFO

This is really funny. Back in 1989, I had a cat. On day, I brought out a box to put some books in. As I approached, clumsily carrying too many books, she jumped in. I had to put the stack of books down and get her out because cats don't listen.
After doing this a couple of times, I stuck a finger in the corner of the box and spun it fast as I could. She could barely walk when she got out.
From that day forward, if I put a box on the floor and spun it, empty, she would come CHARGING from where ever she was and jump in the box, staggering around for minutes after each "ride".
Thanks for the reminder!!!! Maybe your cat is waiting for her thrill ride?
