What is it with cats and boxes? You can buy your feline friend all the expensive toys you want to but, at the end of the day, they’re much more likely to be happy messing about with an empty cardboard box big enough for them to fit in to.

We’ve seen Japanese cats playing with boxes before. And they’re cute, very cute, mainly because Japanese cats have a particular look about them, and a particular temperament as well.

The difference with this video is that it shows a Japanese cat leaping around, in and out of a box, and playing, all in slow motion. Which truly shows off how the cat’s body works when it’s moving.

It actually doesn’t matter what speed we see cats playing in though, as they always end up looking lovable. So much so that I’d love to take this one home for a cuddle. I don’t think my own cat would take too kindly to that though.
