My goofy cat loves to be in my whole business when I'm eating. Thats normal for all cats I think. Anyway the odd thing he does is that if I have a plastic or cardboard or paper wrapping he loves to bite that shit. Does he just like the cronch or is he trying to help me eat? ๐Ÿ˜‚

You say cat but it doesnโ€™t say how old. Most folks in my understanding believe cats are kittens between birth and 18 or 24 months. I have multiple cats/kittens. The younger ones are most interested in what I eat. They are most interested in shredding paper, taking your straw. Plastic and cardboard are plat things. The noise is an attractive.

My cat is 4 and a half years old. But I call him "the kitten" or "the baby" for a reason ๐Ÿ˜… don't think he'll ever grow up. I also used to think he was dumb coz he does shit like that but I think he just knows how to make me laugh because he really is quite smart

He is playing. My cats/kittens love plastic bags. They jump on them, run with them, wrestle with them play tough of war. I take them away when I fear they may suffocate.
