If it fits, it sits, and apparently it shares, too. A seal point Birman with a cream body, dark chocolate face, and pristine white paws lies inside a cardboard box set on a wooden table, her blue eyes calm and watchful. Seven yellow ducklings crowd in around her, nestled under her chin, tucked by her paws, and peeking over the box's edge. Behind them, a warm living room glows in the evening, with a lamp, a houseplant, a gray couch with a throw blanket, and a remote resting near the corner of the table.

Birmans are a gentle, affectionate breed known for their color-pointed coats, deep blue eyes, and their signature white paws, often called gloves. They're typically described as social and calm, enjoying the company of people without being overly demanding. Their medium-long coats are silky and less prone to matting than some longhaired breeds, but regular brushing is still a good idea. As for the box, cats love enclosed spaces because they feel safe and secure, which is why an empty shipping box can rival any expensive bed. A cardboard box is also a simple, inexpensive way to give a cat a cozy hideout.

This particular box has become the most popular spot in the house. One serene Birman, seven fluffy roommates, and a whole lot of cardboard love.
