In Maru's latest adventure, the famous Scottish Fold is faced with an obstacle that at first seems insurmountable: a plastic bin with a toy mouse stuck inside. Most cats might throw in the towel and say, "I can't do this, I don't even have opposable thumbs!" But not our Maru.

Instead of giving up and taking a nap moving on to life's next, easier box, he takes his time to survey the situation, before tackling it with open paws. I believe it was a wise feline philosopher who once said, "When life hands you an impenetrable plastic bin, make a cute cat video out of it." He also may have opined that no mouse worth enjoying has been seized without struggle, and that when your moment finally arrives, don't be afraid to dive in and conquer that box, (adorable) head first.
