I found this quite interesting. A friend of mine who has my cat formerly known as Tucker, said that she asked her vet why cats chew or lick plastic, because Tucker does this as well. He said that it's because it contains animal bi-products and there's some kind of taste that attracts plastic to cats.

Just thought you'd like to know that little tidbit.

BTW, my cat Casey loves plastic bags.
