Why You Should Give Your Cat a Cardboard Box
Give your cat a box! Cats who have boxes have lower stress levels than cats who do not have boxes. Here’s why:
- They satisfy your cat’s instinctive need to feel safe and secure with walls on all sides. Hiding isn’t just for scared or shy cats. All cats enjoy it!
- They boost confidence. Your cat can rub on the box, which deposits pheromones and makes them feel like they own a little bit of territory in your home.
- Cats can destroy them instead of other things in your home. Cats instinctively need to bite, rip, scratch, and chew things. So encourage them to destroy something that was free.
