Heh. When we first got our orange boys, Shadow was 4 years old, and Charlie was about 2 months old. Charlie, being a hyperactive little guy, would pester easygoing Shadow until Shadow reached the end of his rope. Then Shadow would sit on Charlie, and all Iād see was a largish cat with an extra two tiny legs emerging from under his butt. I kept trying to get a pic of this, but never managed it. Iām sure that if Shadow had had the chance to stuff Charlie into a box, heād have taken it.

To a cat, the only thing more fascinating than an empty box is a box with another cat in it.

Or a partially open drawer. Both of my cats are obsessed with partially open drawers. Closed one? Nothing. Fully open ones? Nothing. Pull one out about 4"? OMG, must squirm in and burrow around NOW!!!

As I am currently packing the apartment to move next week, I cannot agree with this statement more.

After he lets whitey out, he gives him a patronising little pat on the shoulder, too.

They all seemed pretty chill about the entire thing. The initial capture was more of an accident than anything else. Sitting on the box was kind of mean, but also oblivious cat.

I hope you donāt mind if I kinda hijack this thread with a question.
I have 3 cats, all siblings. Theyāve always rough-housedāas in, Iāve taken one to the vet for eye scratches received from another one. These cats are hardcore.
Lately, one cat is really getting nasty with the others. Iām talking punches, here (I realize I sound like an idiot, but he really does haul off and PUNCH). If I am nearby, Iāll distract them to end the fight, but otherwise I leave them alone. If I try to separate them, they all howl in protest.
Anyone have any experience with a cat suddenly going all kung-fu fighting on fellow cats?

I think itās just a longhair with a haircut. Interesting look.

Wellā¦ most of the catās body and tail are shaved, right? Iāve never actually seen one of these in person.

Yea, if a Persian or Himalayan cat gets matted, or lives somewhere really hot, or has an owner thatās allergic, etc., you can get them shaved into the ālion cutā to get rid of all that fuzz. I had to do it a few times with one of my cats, back when he was an active youngster and not that into grooming himself. He always hated getting his haircut, but afterwards, seemed so happy not to be weighed down with all that fur.
Iād estimate that lion-cut cat in the video has 3 or 4 months of growth - itās not a fresh shave.
