Why should your cat jump into any old cardboard box when they can lounge in comfort and style? There’s a bit of work involved but if you’re up for the challenge you should have no problem making this cool piece of Cat furniture. You can find the full instructions on the Evil Mad Scientist web site. Here’s a downloadable PDF pattern for the Cat Chaise Lounge

We found this just today from the great list of How To links page in Koncoction.com’s How To section.

Would you consider making something like this for your Cat? Let us know in the comments. Be sure to send us some pictures if you make one. We’d love to see how it turned out and how your cat liked it.

How Jade thinks outside of the Box

Jade’s box obsession continues. Here she is in her latest find. We left a box on the floor from a small framed print that came in the mail and Jade was quick to investigate.

It was a little on the small side, even for Jade, but that was okay with her. No box is too small (except maybe a jewelry box) or too big for Jade.

At one point it looked like Jade was trying to pack herself up for shipping as if she had been sold on ebay. So, we made a fun lolcats picture. You can see and vote on our lolcats picture here!

As soon as she got in the box she was out of the box, if you know what I mean. Being in and out of the box at the same time was a refreshingly new experience for Jade. It’s a box; it’s a matt. This is a box that’s two things in one. Cool.

Now that’s thinking out of the box!

Has Jade’s quest for her dream box ended?

I took these fun pictures of Jade getting boxed in while I was straightening up things in the family room after a very action-packed and fun Christmas week.

I was almost done with a few items left to put away including the box for a toy guitar. By the time I got to the box there was something else in it. Jade! I shouldn’t be so surprised all the time this happens, but I was.

Jade is always the first to appear in any empty box we leave sitting around. She just loves them. This was another hit and a perfect fit with a shape she had never seen before. This box was unlike any of the others she had seen. Jade could actually stretch out in this one.

Most of the boxes Jade gets into are just too small for even her. Somehow she manages to contort herself enough to fit in. Not this time. There was room to move in this one. Was this her dream box? Was her quest over? It sure seemed that way.

Jade got the box and I put the toy Guitar in a soft case. She looked too content to disturb her and, after all, it was Christmas.

Let us know if any of your feline friends share Jade’s love of boxes or any other things cats like to crawl into. Send us a comment and let us know.

In the meantime here is Jade in her dream-box. Enjoy!
