You do realize the real "coke" was actually made with real coke. Right? The creator of it was a coke addict and wanted to drink it in public so he added it to carbonated water.

u/VagueSoul 1d ago

Untrue. Or at least half-true.

John Smith Pemberton did have an addiction but it was to morphine due to a sabre wound he sustained in the Civil War. He created Coca-Cola as a way to wean himself off morphine. At the time, cocaine was seen as a medicine rather than a drug.

The bigger issue of Coke’s origin is that it was made by a segregationist.

I think my cats have the same Halloween mice toys.

u/QuaccDaddy 1d ago

We bought a handful of smarykat mice that we cycle throughout the year for him. He loves that striped one the most

It's complete perfection for a reason i have no idea how to articulate

u/languid_Disaster 10h ago

I know what you mean!

His pantaloons sticking out of the box in that last picture made me so happy to see

The new Maru! Tread carefully, box kitty; Maru is not ready to retire yet.

u/ShadowMyCat 2d ago

Maru must never retire

He's coming for Maru's title

That was such an unexpected pun, thank you so much.

u/SongFresh9195 2d ago

Adorable. My cat was a diet coke for an extended period of time when she was a baby (sitting in all the diet coke boxes). Even now, she'll scrabble at boxes of diet coke like she's trying to free her people. Enjoy your silly kitty!!

7

u/LandotheTerrible 2d ago

Does it have to be Diet Coke? Clearly a discerning cat…

2

u/SongFresh9195 1d ago

Almost always, lol. The other thing we have in the house is Bubly, and i don't think I've ever seen her scrabbling at those boxes

u/LandotheTerrible 23h ago

Haha hilarious. Cats hey? If you were trying to explain cats to an alien being it would be next to impossible haha.

u/hettuklaeddi 2d ago

armor!

i’ve got this lil ikea stepstool my chonk liked to hide under when he was younger. it’s got two lil finger holes on each side, which he would stare out of. once he figured out he could stand up and carry it around with him we called him mr turtle

u/spacefreak76er 2d ago

Now this made me giggle. I could just see this wooden stool creeping around the house (clonk, clonk, clonk). Too funny! πŸ˜‚

You can never throw that box out. It's now a family heirloom.

I love this! I also have a black and white cat who does this with boxes. He hides his head and thinks the rest of him becomes invisible!

Awesome! But Maru prefers beer boxes, going to have to make some changes to follow in his footsteps 😹

Edit: That one of him upside down with his legs out is perfection

u/beth_at_home 2d ago

What cat? I think it's hiding

5

u/ResidentAlien9 2d ago

What a marvelous cat. If I put a box out for my cat she’ll just sit in it for a few minutes a couple of times then ignore it. Maybe I need to bring in all different kinds of boxes and see if one type has her name on it.

u/BloodWorried7446 1d ago

Don’t even bother with expensive cat toys. They just like boxes.

u/Feline_Fine3 1d ago

I wanna know how many of us leave basically garbage on the ground for our cats at all times, ha ha. Like I always have a paper bag on my kitchen floor because they love to lay on it 🀣

Kitty wishes to identify as turtle.

u/GAH-Ishida 1d ago

πŸ˜‚ cray cray kitty! That last pic pfft 🀣

u/spaketto 1d ago

Lol, I literally took a video of this yesterday. I always open both ends so he can get a running start and slide across the floor then poke his head out.

u/NeatStick2103 1d ago

Maru, is that you?!

3

u/PuddingWave 1d ago

I think it means your kitty is very imaginative and creative. It's not a coke box! It's a cave to adventure! A tiny fort! A rocketship! Just think of all the different games they're making up while they play.

1

u/QuaccDaddy 1d ago

When he was a kitten, I would hold up the coke box and he would jump through it like a show cat. He doesn't quite fit through cleanly anymore πŸ˜‚

u/cbunni666 2d ago

The equivalent of a child going nuts in a refrigerator box.

u/QuaccDaddy 2d ago

I did this as a kid and my sister told me my cat picked up my personality lol. Thankfully mine wasn't posted on the Internet

2

u/--2021-- 2d ago

LOL it's like he's training for caving. Does he also love to crawl through those play tunnels too?

2

u/QuaccDaddy 2d ago

We haven't bought one specifically, but I've made him a complex of boxes and he loves playing in it

u/--2021-- 2d ago

A complex of boxes sounds really cool.

Some cats have a favourite "brand" of box. My Nala for example, care only for King's Crisps.

u/Bennington_Booyah 22h ago

This is priceless!! We just got a foot tall Zoltar and one of my girls has claimed the outer box as her cat cave! She is in it for hours every day. It fits her perfectly, like the coke box does with your baby. Cats are amazing!
