Roxie is generally not a fan of empty boxes, bags, baskets, or soft pillows-she prefers lying on hard floor or rug in the sun(probably since she was feral and grew up with that surface). BUT she immediately took a liking to the beautifully woven cotton rope basket - large enough for her to lie in, pounce in & out of, not too hidden, and the ability to claw it up to her heart's content is great-no more cardboard shreds everywhere! The attached woven ball-lots of chewing, kicking, flipping - fun!
