What is it with cats and kids and boxes? Come
Christmas, kids will tear open their presents, ditch the contents and play with
the boxes. Imagination knows no bounds as they drive their own rally cars or buses
or hide from the grown-ups in their cardboard retreats. It's the same with
cats. Leave an empty box lying around and a cat will make a den or secret
attack bunker from which they will strike terror into passing dogs and terrified
weans.
On that basis what possesses a grown adult male of supposedly sound mind
to get excited about a simple cardboard container? Can it be put down simply to
artistic temperament, a desire to be alone or simply the need to make a
personal style statement? Or might it simply be a Blue-Peterish desire to make
his own Aussie sun protection hat - once he finds enough corks? Whatever. If
you do come across this chap around our rallies please be kind, tolerant and
understanding. He obviously needs our help and sympathy.
