Japan’s least claustrophobic cat, Maru devotes his life to squeezing into any box, while his partner Hana puts up with this silliness.

Settle Down, Hana

While Kitten Miri sleeps in her futon, Hana meows restlessly. But there’s no problem that can’t be fixed with some loving pets.

Well, there is one problem pets can’t fix: hairballs. For that, Hana and Miri need to take their medicine. Good luck with that.

Hana knows what to do when presented with a delicious snack, but Kitten Miri isn’t quite so sure. Perhaps a snack of grass from the backyard is more her taste. (via Andrew Y.)

Kitten Miri loves a cozy place to cuddle, such as sleeping in the pocket of her human’s sweater like a baby kangaroo. Meanwhile, Hana visits the backyard for her favorite greens.
