My cat Pepper is 2 years old, male, neutered.

I took my eyes off him for a few seconds and I see him munching on something- we had recently replaced our floors with laminate flooring and we still had not fully cleaned up the bits and pieces and have wood chips laying around so my #1 guess was that he was eating a wood chip from our laminate flooring. Is this something to be worried abour? The piece coukdnt have been more than a centimetre big, very small since I didn’t notice anything on the ground there earlier. I read that laminate flooring is processed wood with chemicals so it worries me a bit, and along with just him eating wood chips in general

Honestly my cat Hellspawn is constantly eating stuff and licking stuff he shouldn’t (plastic, q-tips, biting off chunks of my reusable hard plastic straws, etc). It might cause some tummy issues but he should be fine. Keep an eye out for vomit or poop with blood in it though in case the wood punctures anything (unlikely but still a possibility)
