Hi guys,
I am torn with luxor and his chewing fetish. Luxor has always tried to eat ANYTHING small enough to fit in his mouth.
He turned 1 in June and for about a month now, he's taken to chewing on stoli's ear. Some of you have seen his pictures and video. It started as a novelty, maybe once a day or twice. Now it's so much more it's disconcerting. Stoli only tolerates it for about 5-10 minutes before he gets ticked and runs away.
Stoli's ear is starting to get a little discolored. I think from the food from luxor's teeth. He hasn't lost any fur on his ear yet.
I'm worried that it might be OCD, or PICA, or even something worse. I'm looking for any words of experience, calming, or reasons why i really need to take him in to be seen and what to say.
I don't want to jump to conclusions and you all know that at the first sign of ANYTHING i take my cats in to be seen. i just want to be sure he's all right and get him to stop chewing on stoli. i don't want stoli to get hurt and i don't want luxor to chew on anything else.
could luxor grow out of this?
