Did you ever wonder why cats seem to love cardboard boxes so much? Seeking out enclosed spaces is instinctual behaviour from which they derive comfort and security. Hiding in order to ambush their prey is also instinctual behaviour even for domesticated cats and they  love hiding in a box. Another reason cats especially like cardboard is because the insulating properties of cardboard help regulate the cat’s body temperature, which is naturally higher than the human body temperature.  This box transformed into a castle provides lots of opportunity for the curious cat to play, explore, scratch, ambush, climb, jump… and then repeat.
