I hope you’re sitting down.
Because what you’re about to see is staggering. And sad.
It’s about a Kitteh—a desparate kitteh—who needs boxhab, so, so badly. [Shaking head] I hope you can stand to watch.

It’s so sad when you see that box addiction right in front of you.
(I lol’d. Loud.)
Oh golly, that was just awesome.
Ha! My big creamsicle cat Spencer does the same thing!
Love the splayed-out feet sticking out of the back!
Splayed ‘tocks at the end FTW!
I dunno Meg, I think this Puddy Tat is still in the earliest stages – why he’s still ENJOYING his box habit!
I do predict you will be right down the road, and this delicious looking kitteh WILL need boxhab later in his life.
Peeps! Check out the linked below sliding box-cat video!!!
very very funny
Wow. I did NOT see that coming.
And, yes, it’s the splayed back paws that make this.
Do you think he’d be interested in tryin gout for our luge team?
Nice Newtonian physics demonstration for the high school lab. It involves force, momentum, cat goofiness. . .
First the wiggle-wiggle as he gets ready to attack , then he looks like he is slideing home from third. HEEEESSSS SAFE
Let’s sum up.
Butt wiggles in preparation.
Gallop.
EHN!
Thump.
Slide.
Bravo box diver kitty. Bravo.
Slide, Kitteh, Slide!!
Love the tocks shot at the end!!!!
I’m thinking I want to try this myself. We haven’t had a good snowstorm in years so this might work for me. I’ll need to work on my butt wiggle.
Hee hee! I have to agree with Michele, that was the best part. Neither one of my cats is box happy, though one will work for hours tearing them apart one little piece at a time. All I hear is *rip, ptooey, rip, ptooey*
Only thing cuter than kittens is a cat with marshmallow chubbiness.
All these years I’ve been fishing for kitties, I’ve never caught even one. Now I know why. I was using the wrong lure! (goes off to tie a box fly)
ROFL…. I can’t stop laughing at the slide w/ the splayed feet at the end! Too hilarious
@I wuvs puttens: ROFL!!! “Rip, Ptooey!”
Think we have a new sport on our hands: Box Diving!
[wigglewigglewiggle]
Charge!
[splayed]
i wanna have a go too!! it looks tewtelly fun!
This had me laughing out loud for almost a full minute.
Butt wiggle and splayed kitteh feet. My Sunday is complete.
OH, sway sway, sway charge!
Pok! Ssssslide
XD I laughed hard.
thanks, yitzymom! the other boxcat one’s hilarious, too! cats are so funny…
I nearly just spat my soda out laughing at those little legs sticking out of the box.
*snort* that toadilly made my sunday!!!!
i love the splayed feet at the end. lol
I’m afraid this is a much graver issue than you might think. This cat is obviously already suffering from a severe box addiction, as can be seen in this slightly longer vid:

Sad, sad indeed.
Is that a British Shorthair??
I love “le butt wiggle.” My kitties do this before they pounce into their hiding tunnels.
8.5 for degree of difficulty. 9 for artistry. 10 for execution and splayage.
Okay, everyone HAS to watch the link mie posted 4 comments up. It has more camera angles and even more splayage.
As for the boxhab treatment — how many times do I have to tell you behaviorist, SYSTEMATIC DESENSITIZATION DOES NOT WORK FOR ADDIC-SHUNS! Get this cat to a 12-step-splay group, Stat!
at my house we call the tocks at the end pancake butt.
I loled! His little fat feet are too cute when he slides into that box.
I’m with berthaservant — you HAVE to watch the longer clip — the last shot is just great…
LOLLLLLLLkkkkkhhhhhhhh ::sputter sputter::
The longer clip is genius! That cat clearly has a chronic box habit
Dive dive dive!!!
One of the cutest things ever on CO!
That simply has to be Japan. Something about the shape of the cat and those pristine, glass-like wood floors.
The longer clip is excellent. Poor kitty. I hope its owners can get it down to one dive a day soon.
*rofl* really funny.
Also, that cat is like the Japanese Winston apparently. Its owner has a zillion videos of it on Youtube.
This sink video is cute

*GSOML*
This may just be the most important video ever produced.
Everyone, watch the clip mie posted! More camera angles, longer vid, more tocks…and the gentle sway of the tail as kitty contemplates box-nirvana. perfect.
I have been watching the other vids on this kitty, and I must say, he’s adorable and also LARGE.
I *WILL* have my box!!!!!
No, no, kitteh! No, kitteh! Don’t do eet! Noooo!
I think I just peed myself!!
oh, the PETA-overloaders are gonna be ALL over this one
Kitteh clearly has a problayme! Maybe she can share a room with Nelly at Promises?
I am SUCH an enabler….I would be providing this kitteh with every size and shape box I could get my hands on. And recording it ALL of course.
Actually, I’m more impressed with the clean floor – could eat your dinner off it!
Love it!
Another severe case, I think:

boxhab schmoxhab, I need cathab!!!
I think my Chloe was abused before I got her. She seems to have so many hang-ups. I wish she could enjoy life’s little pleasures, but she seems afraid of so many things. She is such a sweetie.
That’s the best Pete Rose slide I’ve seen in years. It could have used a little more belly flop but it was perfect.
Hmpf, I watched that one this morning (the rabbit hole that is YouTube; you can chase related vids for hours). I like that one! I love that his name is Shovel Duck. (What’s the story behind that?)
There’s another cat (Rufus, another good name) in a Yahtzee box, but there I think the cat begins to tire of whole process a bit as it starts attacking the hand that’s sliding it. Not that it gets out of the box, though.

Love the slide and then splayed out feet are great!
HEheh I was gonna say “and it is a home run folks look at him sliiiiiiide.”
But I see lots of you already went there.
Not a sad thing about it.
Love it!
Really enjoying all these
comments!
Wheeeeeee
Are you sure he isn’t EATING the boxes more than he’s jumping into dems?
That is one fat kitteh.
OMG the splayed white sockies at the end! LOLOL
I’m Doctor Kat. And, really, it hurts when you see the modern kitteh resorting to such she-nanigans. To see the case study splayed out in all her feline (or is it canine?) redonkulousnous is to consider the current nightmare; Kittehs Gone Wild! One must look at this particulars subject and assume that there are the standard two influences: Kitteh, or Envi-RONS! Can the modern kitteh pad so low, or was she halped by her Human (yyyyuuuchhh..) cap-TORS! The box itself? Not up to cat standards and seems to have seen better days, but the cat? This subject may never have had a chance. Growing up in a Human (eeeeecchhh..) home may have robbed this lowly kitteh of her wits, her wisdom AND her tender sensibilities! One must wonder how this kitteh goes through the rest of her day when her Human (uugghhh..) minders take her box. Possibly some sort of dillusional cat-atonic state! I hope they’re happy!
WOOOOOT! Best youtubevideo EVER!
but one does wonder about the lowly human who will spend hours watching these addicted creatures. Another addiction perhaaps?
I can’t stop watching it and snorting! Kittehs are totally teh awesome!
I can’t stop watching this…I just keep thinking, “All your box are belong to me!!!”
You betcha, metaskins!
that is spec-TOCK-ular!
note to self – do NOT watch when there are clients in the lobby
those fat little legs sticking out of the box…ZOMG!!! WE NEED STILLS!
I just got a chance to watch this and omg LOL !!! What a riot! Cats are SO SILLY!!
SO HILARIOUS!!!!!!
