Tiger sunbathing in a boxI am unable to envision anything quite as adorable as my cat Tiger lounging in the sun, cuddled in his precious little box.

He has been a fan of this box since he was just a kitten, and we have preserved it ever since. When Tiger was just nine months old, we almost threw out this little half box. He mauled a couch that day. The next day, we brought in the box from the recycling, and he has been a happy cat ever since.

I have taken many photos over the years of Tiger cuddled in this box, but I love how the light looks in this particular picture.

You can feel the warmth of the sun, Tiger purring, and envision him slowly closing his eyes and yawning. There are few moments more tender than those of a sunbathing cat.

Tiger looks less cute on the bed than in the box
