Anyone else's cat enjoy destroying paper products?
This is the fourth cat I've had, but I've never seen the behavior exhibited in the previous cats.
For some reason my cat, currently 11 months old, seems to enjoy tearing apart paper products. You name it, paper towels, napkins, newspapers, the receipt from the supermarket, etc. One time I made the mistake of putting the Sunday paper down on the table, stepped out of the living room for a moment and when I came back, one would think a ticker tape parade had passed through the room because the paper was nearly shredded into confetti.
We even have wallpaper starting to peel from the wall and she'll tear pieces of that off the wall.
One thing though, I know she's not eating the paper because she always spits it out.
I'm hoping this is a kitten thing and that eventually she'll get bored of it or outgrow it.
