licking plastic!
 
I have three cats, and all of them like to lick plastic bags. One of them
likes to chew the plastic too. Anyone else have a cat like this? Also, does
anyone think this is dangerous in any way?

It is very dangerous...
I have several cats that do it too, I just keep plastic bags out of
their reach. They only have brief access to them when I'm unloading and
putting away groceries.

Oh, they also like to pee on them. ;-) One more good reason to keep them
picked up!

I never leave the plastic and the kitties unattended, but do you think it's
dangerous because of suffocation risk, or is the plastic itself dangerous.
They've never tried to eat it, only lick it!
