Happy Valentine’s Day, Maru

Maru, it must be noted, is not the most romantic of cats. Like a grumpy old bachelor, he eschews the confining, constricting nature of relationships — after all, that’s what boxes are for. So when mommy plays matchmaker with a heart-shaped mystery box, Maru gives Hana the cold shoulder (and a right hook) before turning the box into his own cozy little man-cave.

    Maru loves nothing more than boxes. But, he could have been nicer to his sister. ??

    “I love you with all of my butt, because it’s bigger than my heart-shaped box”
    – Maru, probably

    Suddenly having 90s grunge flashbacks…Nirvana’s “Heart Shaped Box” and of course that classic Alice in Chains song “Maru in the Box”…

    (Also I might listen to a little too much of the Lithium channel on Sirius XM Radio.)

      That song was the first thing I thought of when I saw this post!

    Maru is the weirdest cat. What I wouldn’t give for a front row seat to his brain box. (and Mike’s, for that matter)

    I love the back view in which the mushroom-shaped bed looks like a beret on Maru’s head.

    Maru’s heart-shaped muffin top is adorable.
