Does anyone know why cats love paper bags?

Every cat I've seen loves paper bags or toys with that "crinkling" paper sound in it. My cats love to get inside paper bags and sleep there or roll around and enjoy the crinkle.

Anyone know the reason for this?

    Because cats are goofy? It's probably because they just like the noise. =)

    My cat likes to sit on plastic and paper bags. It keeps them cool just like the previous poster said. Plus it makes a noise that they like. Mine also likes to sit in paper bags and cardboard boxes for close shelter.

    I don't know but it's so true.

    MY mom works in a daycare and when ever she is preping for her projects and stuff the cat will jump on the bed and roll around in the paper. lol i love it!

    They just like to hide it give's them a sense that they are safe in the bag and it is because they also like to explore alot.

    They love the sound. It probably sounds to them like mousies chewing on things.
