    Boxing Day is suddenly a *much* better holiday!

  7. pyrit says:

    Federal Expurress charges furty dollars.

    Brown paper packages tied up with strings and whiskers on kittens are a few of my favorite things.

  8. Aubrey says:

    And I believe you have to sign-amese for this in purr-son, pyrit.

    If you please.

  9. Cat says:

    It’s disguise.

    Step 1 find box that fits all molecules, no more, no less.

    Step 2 squish into box

    Step 3 get wrapped in pretty paper

    Step 4 lie low while placed under tree.

    Step 5 Giggle quietly as humans wonder where kitty has gone

    Step 6 wait til dark adn humans give up and go to bed

    Step 7 Have fun in Xmas Tree without being harassed by boring old humans.

  10. Kar says:

    There’s nothing like an American Seal point. And the smartest, most manipulative ones I’ve run across.

    But that tail is confusing. Doesnt look like a siamese’s tail.

  11. Rafael says:

    Kitty:”This will do, until I find a smaller box, hopefully one filled with bubble wrap and packing peanuts!”

  12. Charlie says:

    That cat looks like a beautiful creamy cappuccino with blue eyes. Yum.

  13. mleiv says:

    How *do* they fit into such tiny spaces. What did the Doctor call the Tardis? Dimensionally transcendental? Cats and physics, man…

  14. MamaDawn says:

    Cardboard box… $2.00
    Packing materials (biodegradable starch) $5.00
    Overnight Shipping: $20.00

    Cat in box: priceless.

  15. Aubrey says:

    Rafael’s comment reminds me that ‘A Charlie Brown Christmas’ is on tonight.

  16. pyrit says:

    Signed, Sealpointed and Delivered!

  17. o says:

    OK, I want a boxed kitteh for christmas.

  18. lauowolf says:

    Kat-
    The tail doesn’t look as if it matches the cat?
    Maybe there’re two of them in there.

  19. Subhangi says:

    Ooooh, what a gorgeous Siamese! Pity the cream part is covered by the box. What a great gift for the season!

  20. Mitsu says:

    I waaaaaant one!

    We used to have sealpoint siamese in my family growing up, I miss them!

    I think this kitty just has a bit of floof in his genes, and it’s manifesting in the tail (where it often does).

  21. Christina says:

    I changed my mind – I want THAT *points* for Christmas!!

    Sweet little bundle of joy in a box.

  22. constance says:

    Oooo! If I send you my address, can you make sure I et one of those?

  23. Christina says:

    Ooh, now I know what to tell my family to get me this year! They have been asking.

    Though I wonder if there’s a boxed hammie option…

  24. Mitsu says:

    Sweet little bundle of mischief, more like! I seem to recall some sealpoints bouncing off the walls and launching at the Christmas roast, ninja-style. I’ll never forget the time I caught one halfway to the back bedroom with an entire ham in his furry little jaws.

    I seriously thought all cats were like these special ops food bandits until I started getting me some tabbies. I’m still amazed that I can leave meat out in the kitchen and my cats don’t jump up on the stove and take it. Good ol’ tabbies. Still, I kind of miss the siameses.

  25. Aubrey says:

    “Signed, Sealpointed and Delivered!”

    and sealed with a hiss – although this beauty looks pretty content.

  26. Gary Fixler says:

    You know what that box needs? Racing stripes.

    Maybe some sweet flames.

  27. Aubrey says:

    Gary, yes – a Soapbox Fur-by

  28. musicchick2 says:

    Beautiful cat! And I’m sure quite mischievous as well.

    I have to say, all of you posters on this one…the comments are first rate! You all deserve some kind of blue ribbon or something for proshest comments for a pic. Thanks for making me smile, everyone! :-D

  29. musicchick2 says:

    OOooo Oooo…. on the cutetracker…if any of you can see it – the big fat cat with the remote? He’s mine! *sigh*

  30. Brak_Silverbone says:

    Whatever IT is, you can find IT on eBay!

    … sorry, it’s 7:10 AM, that’s the best I can do…

    *tucks arm and kitty under box, tiptoes away for a snorglefest*

  31. Sylvia says:

    Love his face!

    HEY, YOU GOTTA SEE THIS!

    The cutest bird EVER!

  32. Nonie says:

    Oh – you guys – please check out my kitty in her box:

  33. carolina says:

    Gorgemouse!

  34. blair says:

    that cat looks pretty uncomfortable in that box

    maybe someone could get it a smaller one so it can squish up properly?

  35. fifi says:

    Nonie–
    so cute, esp the sort of zombie quality to the whole scene once the dog decides to investigate.

    blair: ha, best set-up ever. That’s like a Bob Hope gag–i was all, “Waddaya mean that cat looks uncomf….oh, hee hee i get it” ;)

  36. Teughcats says:

    [sort of on topic]
    The cat shelter I volunteer at just flew a kitty to ALASKA (and we are in Michigan) to his new forever home! He went in a carrier on the plan, though – not in a cardboard box.
    Love the clever comments – and yay to no nuffinghams!

  37. Manekineko says:

    Siamese colors and floofty tail? I’m bettin’ it’s a Birman…

  38. Rumi says:

    That is SO what my cat does. Especially when I’m trying to box up for shipment stuff I’ve sold on ebay. The cat hair my buyers receive is free-of-charge! :-)

  39. pyrit says:

    teughcats – Alaska, wow. That lucky shelter kitty will have a white Christmas.

  40. Teri says:

    It’s like trying to wrap presents here, only make the cat MUCH bigger, and the box MUCH smaller. And yet she still fits.

  41. chayil says:

    I own a family of these, they are not Siamese, but Balinese!
    Note the furry tail. His face indicates that he must be about a year old. His mask will get darker around the ears.
    These are extremely smart and mischevious cats.

  42. NebraskaErin says:

    An important point: Make sure you poke holes in the box BEFORE you put the kitteh in it. Trust me, you don’t wanna learn that one the hard way.

  43. you guys r silly says:

    NebraskaErin:
    heh-heh…you r BAD…&:o)

  44. Kerri says:

    Hey your box looks cozier than mine!

  45. bfl says:

    My black cat will ALWAYS try and squish herself into boxes, no matter how small! (Think 10 lb kitty standing in a teapot box, trying desperately to ‘circle’ in). She currently naps in a strainer, since she outgrew her fruit bowl!

  46. Aubrey says:

    Teughcats –

    Excellent! Kitteh will be a Nome-ad forever!

  47. Silence Dogood says:

    Remember, folks, punch the holes in the box BEFORE you put the cat in!

  48. Silence Dogood. says:

    I see you beat me to that one, NE Erin. Sowwy!

  49. Weffie says:

    If I didn’t know I had our camera at my office, I would swear my 3-year-old Balinese Minka was taking pictures of herself and sending them to CO! It’s amazing how small these cats can make themselves, isn’t it?

  50. little miao says:

    Beautiful pic of a gorgeous cat! Kitties love boxes, and they can fit in them regardless of size.

    And I see hints of a very fluffy tail on the Siamese-like beauty.

  51. Arvay says:

    Oh pretty! I like Siameses that are shaped like ordinary kitties, and are not all pointy!

  52. Martha in Washington says:

    I’ve been asking Santa for one of these! I believe! I believe! I believe!

  53. lurkertype says:

    This kitteh could be the long-lost Miao Brother!

    (little m, back to the papers or I shall send Prof. T to YEEM again)

    Me too, Arvay. The scrawny rat-like meezers aren’t attractive to me. I likes my cats to look like cats.

  54. Mona says:

    Carolina,
    Animals actually like small spaces. It makes them feel safe. I had a bunny and we made a little house out of a shoebox for it. It chose to sleep in there everynight!

  56. Alexis says:

    I love cats in boxes! This one is especially beeyouteeful.

  57. Brak_Silverbone says:

    “*tucks arm and kitty under box, tiptoes away for a snorglefest*”

    Um, okay. Obviously I made this comment BEFORE I had ingested any caffeine.

    “TUCKS KITTY AND BOX UNDER ARM, TIPTOES AWAY FOR A SNORGLEFEST” is what I MEANT.

    Good gravy.

  58. other shadow friend says:

    so it’s a little after 10 here and i’m about ready to go to bed. i scan cute overload’s pics for today…and see shadow! this cat actually isn’t ours, but he visits everyday. there was a box lying around in my room and shadow just climbed right in it even though he doesn’t quite fit! when it was time for him to go home, i had to literally pour him out of the box. we sent meg a series of shots to try and show how big he was compared to the box and all…this is definitely a good one.

    some of you were inquiring about what kind of kitteh he is and we know he has some tabby stripes and his brother looks nothing like him (very tabby-ish).
    anyway, i loved all the comments. you guys are hilarious!

  59. Mitsu says:

    Ah, just as I suspected, this is a mixed-breed kitty with a floofy gene and a stripey gene. And a handsome gene. And a box magnet gene. And a mischief gene. And another handsome gene.
