I always find the feline obsession with getting inside small containers fascinating. Do they think they're invisible now? That they have found a secure position and are now safe inside the paper bag or box lid? Have they established alpha-cat bona fides by laying claim to a territory no other cat will be able to share, therefore rendering it "impossible" for another cat to become a rival within the very small space? Or is it just very, very comfortable, when you're a cat, to have your ass surrounded on four sides by paper?
I dunno...I've got a friend whose cat always gets into the shopping bag or box I used to carry goodies or projects into her house. Which means when I'm ready to leave I have to evict Elvis so I can leave the building!!
The way things work here, is that if there is something on the floor--box, paper, a pile o' magazines, plastic sheeting, a post-it note--a cat must sit on that. And if time allows, both cats must sit on it in turn.

Cats and vintage tablecloth.
I'm told you can use woven cat whiskers to repair tablecloths like that. (It was beautiful.)

There's not much that's smaller than Pippin at the moment. He could about fit in a camera case. :)
Cute, very cute, especially Widget, who looks kinda pissed.
Pissed? That's Widget's happy face.
And that's a 8 1/2 X 11 printer paper case box? ;)

Michelle -- same thing here. Clean laundry is one of the favorite things to sit on...
