Virtual Thing of the Day: 5/5/20

May 5, 2020 by Donna from One Beautiful Thing 10 Comments

Today’s virtual thing is just plain silly, but it made me laugh, so here we go. There’s a new army invading the internet, and it’s adorable! These are Cats in Tanks, created by bored cat owners who found a creative use for their cardboard boxes. You can be sure I am going to try one of my own! I’m sure Stabby Abby would love it.

You can see all the Cats in Tanks shenanigans on Instagram.

Every cats dream–playing in boxes! My three would love this! But their girls, so probably curtains on the windows. Tanks have windows, right? 😀
