    ... how many ways does your cat fit in a box??

    Eve while playing with her mouse must have shifted her position in the box a dozen times I managed to catch about five of those positions

    What a great idea, a great do it yourself cat game that requires only a box and a toy mouse.
    It is great when you can improvise something that Eve loves so much!!

    Havoc likes to play hide-and-seek with his toys too. In the shoe, out of the shoe, swatted under the couch, fished out of the couch, underneath the closet door, start crying and whining until mommy opens the closet door, etc...

    Have you noticed that there isn't a box a kitty can't manage to fit into? And sweet Eve even managed to keep enough room in there for her favorite mousie. She's beautiful and has every reason to be proud of herself. Please give her some lovies from me?

    Hi Evie, isn't the mousie game one of the best? Especially when there is a box involved

    Most of Eve's mice have pouches in them for catnip ... I put a little bell in the pouches she loves the sound of the bell when she bats her mouse around - keeps her amused especially at 3:00 am in the morning
