Gratuitous Boo!

Meet Boo, the ruler of the Sweet Tarragon roost, who turned 11 last month (we think).

She likes books.

She likes books.

She loves yogurt.

She loves yogurt.

Boo’s true loves, though, are those darn boxes.

She sits inside my $2 lightbox, on shipping boxes as they come in, on pizza boxes and shoe boxes, and any other box you can imagine.  We kept a (clean, empty) pizza box in the corner of our old apartment just for that purpose.  She has a blanket-lined basket, open choice of any number of upholstered furniture items in the house, and two cushy laps, but more often than not, she goes for the box.
