Why does my cat lick plastic?

  • My cat loves to lick plastic bags, does anybody else's cat do the same thing and why?


  • My cat does that too. I just watch her so she doesn't hurt herself with it and make sure that when I leave the house there isn't anything she can get into. I think that she does it because it she can make the noise or maybe it feels good on her teeth, I'm not sure. I just make sure she's safe with it. And it's cute when she plays with it.


  • My cat and my parents cat do the same thing. Its because plastic is mostly synthetic, but does have traces of natural rubber which comes from a plant that in the wild cats will eat.


  • Our cats always licked plastic bags as well as photographs and since many other people I know tell me that their cats do the same thing, there has to be a reason that so many cats engage in the same behavior.

    Not being a cat, LOL :) I can only tell you what I THINK it has to do with and I think that this has something to do with the ingredients in these particular items that seems to appeal to a cat's taste.


  • My cat licks and chews on plastic bags. We have to keep an eye on her so she doesn't actually eat them. I would also like to know why she does this.
