So, yesterday morning when I woke up..walked into the kitchen I saw a plastic bag which Trout had gotten her paws on, and she had chewed a hole through it..

I am thinking OMG she has eaten plastic, and she actually swallows it, she doesn't just chew it.

So I have a had a hawkeye on her for any weirdness..Anyway, this morning I heard her hacking something up..and I figured it was the plastic. This was at 5am..then all of a sudden I didn't hear her making any sound..I'm like "Trout?"...no answer..."Trout?"...no answer..."TROUT?"..nothing.

I panicked, got outta bed, turned the light on in search of her..and then she comes running out of the livingroom all happy and chirping.."woohoo, mom is outta bed!!"

Meanwhile, I am almost losing it thinking she choked or something


:censor::censor::censor::censor:, what kind of cat actually CRAVES plastic?

I guess she figured enough's enough!!! you don't need to sleep anymore!


I dunno, lots of cats seem to like plastic!

Glad she's ok...and that you are too!

I read somewhere that there is a fish oil or something in plastic bags, and thats what makes them crave it I guess.
Orion does the same thing

sorry Nat, I had to laugh.NOT that she was hacking,but that she has you trained now.She knows how to get Mom up out of the bed for playtime now.

I'm glad she is o.k. and sorry that she scared the poo out of you.

Nat you crack me up...Glad Trout is okay

Severino LOVES plastic we have such a hard time with him because sometimes you just forget about the plastic...he goes after the plastic on cases of cat food, and bags and he licks like crazy, and the plastic that toliet paper is in etc. He knocks over my garbage can in my bedroom every night searching for plastic!

OMG
What is WRONG with cats? Who even likes plastic
You should see her when I get groceries..its like she discovered the mother load


Well, I am glad she's okay though, I have been worried that it wouldn't allow her to have BM's..There was DEFINATELY some BM in the litterbox this morning though


I sometimes see plastic in her BM
What a FREAK she is...much like her grandmum

Plastic bags are Phantoms favorite toy! she doesn't chew them she just lays in them or pushes them around the house!

Glad to hear Trout was just trying to get you out of bed!

Whitey is that way with plastic bags too. At first he would just play with it (kind of like a kid jumping in a pile of leaves) when I brought home groceries.

THEN he started eating it. I watch him like crazy as he'll actually figure out how to get close enough (if I put it up high) and start to eat it. I'm worried since my Brother's dog ate some plastic and it wound up getting stuck in her stomach. Needless to say she had to have ER surgery.

Anyhoo, yea, I don't understand whats so tasty about plastic.
