Why Does Buddha Eat Cobwebs?
I realize that this says something about my housekeeping, but I catch her at
this in my office all the time. I recall reading that spiderwebs were used in healing by Native Americans at some point. I've never had a cat that does this, anyone else? |

It isn't movement, or like play, it's like foraging. She's a weird girl. |

This makes sense, since spiders wrap their bugs in them when they store them for eating later. Also, Cobs are spiders, it is an old English term I think. But why does Buddha eat them? She gets wet food twice a day and dry, too. Today she came up to Cheeky's food room, and I looked over and Cheeks was eating her food and Boo was scooping out cobwebs from under the Etagierre.
