My Cats Eating My Clothes!

[Randi]

I wonder if there's anything she needs in her diet. Could be that she is searching for that particular thing - your vet should know.

Only once have I caught Fister chewing on wool, it was a rolled up ball of yarn. He had swallowed several inches, but luckily I noticed and could pull it gently back up.

Can you offer him a catnip toy in exchange - the way you distract a 2 year old from something they shouldn't do?

Or use the water squirt bottle to make him stop?

"Pica" is the term for eating things they shouldn't, and it usually suggests something missing from their diet; but not always.

Have you tried sprinkling some Barley Cat on his food? It is a green powder, food supplement / treat, which adds greens to their diet. Like nibbling on grass.

I can't think of anything else to try!

Sparkle eats rubber bands, I find them in her poops! But mostly I keep them out of her reach.
