Our beloved, late kitty, Katie, was a total plastic junkie! She'd chew on anything plastic she could get her mouth/paws on - it was her personal crack cocaine. Alas, along with her pathological craving for plastic on which to chew, she also had a violent allergy to the stuff, and as a kitten she developed horrific ulcers in her mouth and throat from her chewing. It was a couple of weeks and several expensive trips to the vet for testing before the cause of the mouth ulcers was determined. (D'oh!) We immediately banished plastic wherever possible in the house, kept the garbage cans out of her reach (she'd stand up on her back legs to gnaw on the edges of the bags), etc. Her absolute, most favorite plastic "treats" were Easter grass and tinsel. We still refrain from using either in her memory............
Ah, kitties and their quirks. :) Hope you and the Mrs. have a great weekend! We're off to the Apple Fest tomorrow - they have this apple sausage there that is deeeelish.
i think cats are a girl thing , i cant be doing with them at all...give me a dog anyday
growing up we had a tom named Ming Toy who was the image of your kitty. however he was not capeable of psychic communication. he was capeable of running flat out along a vertical surface, though.
