I do!!! You should see my living room with all the boxes.DH says,"why don't you throw some of those boxes out?They're taking up half the living room."
I always look at them and think........would the kits like this one.......would it be too small..........be too big................how long will it last.

who else is guilty? SPEAK UP!!!
My room is full of boxes for Scratch, same with the whole basement.

Guilty as charge here! Whitey loves paper bags, so I rip the handles off of them (to prevent choking) and he spends the rest of the night pouncing on the bag, hiding in it etc.

Luna and Patches prefer boxes. Luna will actually attempt to smack anyone that goes near her "fort"

Yes I do! Sometimes I will cut holes in them for windows. Others I leave whole so I can give Danny "train" rides. (Yes, he sits in it and I drag him around making "choo-choo" noises!
)

ALL size boxes, ALL OVER my house.

Glad to know I'm not alone in my sickness.

I get a lot of packages and have learnt there is no box too small for a cat to try and get into


Baker & Spritzer like to sharpen their claws on cardboard so I have to replace mine fairly regularly.

I have one still from like, 4 months ago.
My mom takes boxes from work & brings them home. Not only do the housecats get them, but the kitties in the garage & shop(the "outside" kitties) get boxes, too. If I have time, I make condos out of them, but in many cases Damita just gets inside there & gets confused. Then I feel bad....

I only have a big box that was going to be to mail Lee a care package and like 4 12pk coke boxes. The cats like them so I can't get rid of them and risk having a sad kitty!

Coke boxes are the favorite around here, good thing DH is an addict. But I swear Dianna knows the sound of the UPS truck, she knows that sound means she gets a new box with, hopefully, bubblewrap or peanuts to play with. Sometimes she even lets me get the stuff out first n=before playing in the box

Guilty here!!!


DH will come home, "I thought you cleaned? What's with all the trash laying around?" Ummm, it's not trash, it's an indoor amusement park for our children! DUH!!!!


(I let them lay around for about a week, or untill I know someone is coming over....

I purposely go to CostCo not to buy things, but to get cool boxes for the kits! Can I sneak a pic in here of my kitty condo?

I put all new Air Conditioner units in this summer, and was just going to keep the boxes until I was sure that the units all worked and that I wouldn't need to return them. But Mischief and Trace have claimed the "cardboard tower" in the corner of the back bedroom, and they're still there

We still have the a/c box from the unit we bought last year... and I can't actually remember what this box is off (and I think it will have to go to the kitty box graveyard soon
) but we have had this one for about 2 years and Scully lives in it
