Welcome! regarding toys around the house- rubberbands and string a no-no! get them all up right away! and thread and plastic bags. rubberbands, ribbons, string, and thread are all ingested, then most of the time wrapped around the intestine, bound and can kill the kitty. (I'll never forget my neighbor coming to me in a panic cuz her cat had thread hanging out of her rectum- we pulled it all out- 3 feet- one very lucky cat- a co-worker wasn't so lucky. Exact same situation, his gal died). The milk carton tabs can be dangerous because they can easily be chewed into little plastic pieces (i found out the hard way). I allow my cats to satisfy that need for "round rings" with gatorade tough rings from the bottom of the bottle top. I don't THINK a cat can chew threw those (anyone, correct me if I am wrong here!- i would want to know)
Kitty will be attracted to plastic bags because one of the ingredients is fish oil. Don't leave it around! I actually had a trauma just last night! I have no idea where Pixie found this plastic grocery bag, but she did, and she got it wrapped around her waist and back legs and tore through the house in terror, got everyone upset, hid for 2 hours, I finally found her and was able to untangle her but found out today she had unplugged my phone in her rampage to rid herself of the devil. It's just not a good idea. Had it been tangled on her head, she could have suffocated...again, Welcome!
