Finn has done this ever since I got him at 7 months (he's 3 now) and I've always wondered about it!
When we're snuggling a lot of times if I'm wearing thin, loose clothing he'll bite it and pull really hard. It's a little obnoxious since he'll sometimes pinch my skin with his teeth when he's doing it, but no matter how often I discourage him he'll just go right back to it. I'd always thought it was a form of aggressive wool sucking but I've never heard of another cat actually biting and pulling the fabric. He only ever does it on my clothing that I'm wearing and it's always while he's purring, and he'll typically put his paws on the fabric as well and often start kneading.
Does it seem like wool sucking? If so it's sweet but I wish he was more gentle, he has pointy teeth!
