Hi guys. One of our two 7-month-old Maine Coons, Bruce, has started chewing at the throw that covers the futon in our study (where I work from home). I am getting a bit concerned that he will turn into one of those cats that eats wool!
So far he is just sucking and chewing, and not actually breaking the fabric (it is quite a loose weave throw, too light in weight to be actual wool). Both Bruce and Sheila do like the throw - they knead it during sleepy contented phases, and sleep on it happily.
Does anyone have any tips on how to get Bruce out of this habit, or reassurance that it may not lead to cloth eating?
Thanks
Bruce&Sheila
