New cat

[Jim Gleason]

.
Yesterday my neighbor went to the store for me. He got me some cheap aluminum foil. Really cheap.

Here I am trying to wrap something and this foil was not rolling out correctly. It was a mess.

The cat is sitting on the counter watching (he does this often). Here's me picking at the roll trying hopelessly to get it started.

Little pieces of foil brakes off and falls to the counter. Luckily I looked down and the cat starts to eat the foil. He has several pieces in his mouth. He starts to swallow. I grab the cat and force my finger in the mouth and pushed the foil out.

This cat is driving me nuts. I took the whole roll and tossed it in the trash where it belongs.

Just another thing I have to be watchful about.

Who would thought a cat would eat aluminum foil.

I like to keep potentially-dangerous things like aluminum foil and saran (clear) wrap and plastic bags in a drawer or cupboard or other closed-off spot where the cat can't get at it but you can get it out when you need some.

Best wishes! And bless you and thank you for taking this sweet kitty in and giving him a home and loving him.

Fear aggression is activated by a cat who sees a danger that he or she cannot elude. Joint pain, dental malady, injury, and diseases are fair a few of the conditions that can cause torment and ensuing hostility when a cat is touched, or considers he or she may be touched, in an agonizing range.

You should bring him to the vet to be checked
