my cat chews on wood
Jed Is he chewing or licking the wood?
If he is chewing the wood it can be a behavioral problem IMO which needs to be stopped due to if the cats swallows splinters can become lodged in the throat and stomach leading to severe problems Now If I am correct I remember something about cats licking wood due to anemia or something on this terms. I am not sure I am leaving a cross post in rec.pets.cats.health+behav a lot of good knowledgeable cat people hang out there "Jason" wrote in message ... "Jed" wrote in message ... is this normal? Can't say I have ever heard of such a thing. Have you asked your vet? Jason |

I don't know about the why, but it seems that, lately, cats are chewing or licking strange things. I had one who went after every kind of electrical wire. Another chewed metal door stops and pretty much anything metal - to the point of breaking teeth. The one I have now goes after ANY thing plastic. I'm not sure of the others but cats like plastic because they use fish in the making of the plastic. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |

You'd have to ask the manufacturer why they use it. ----== Posted via Newsfeeds.Com - Unlimited-Unrestricted-Secure Usenet News==---- http://www.newsfeeds.com The #1 Newsgroup Service in the World! 120,000+ Newsgroups ----= East and West-Coast Server Farms - Total Privacy via Encryption =---- |
