    aww! our kitty does this too, she loves hopping into the kitchen sink for some reason

    i think it might be because it has faint food smells, from rinsed dishes and such? maybe

    or it’s just a box and so she likes to sit in it

      She’s likely trying to cool herself. Mine does the same in summer, but in the bathroom sink. Picture related:

        perhaps! it’s midwinter on my side of the globe though, i don’t think she’d be overheating?

        she’s been sleeping on my laptop for its warmth basically every day

          I’m also from the southern hemisphere. The kitty that I’ve posted does this mostly in December and January; these days she has been burying herself in the blankets instead, except through the veranico*.

          It’s also possible that your kitty decided that the sink is “her” place, a bit out of habit. Or that she’s attracted by the smell of food, as you’ve said.

          *dunno the English name, it’s the few winter days that are almost summer-like, usually around July. Oddity of my city.
