We adopted a pixiebob kitten from a breeder over a year ago and we didn’t know the cat had PICA. Not just a minor case but will literally eat anything. It has taken over our home life and we can’t leave her out at night or when we leave and all doors have to stay closed when she’s out.
She’s a very loving and tolerable cat around everyone but her destroying our house and everything we own is making me want to get rid of her. I’m honestly concerned that she will end up killing herself from eating non digestible things. She goes through periods of a day or two of not eating because her stomach is filled up random crap. So far it usually passes but one of these days it’s not and she’s going to need surgery. I’m not about to spend a few thousand dollars for that when she will go right back to eating everything again.
The tricky part is anytime we play with her it makes her PICA kick into overdrive. She has ate every single toy she’s ever had. Non digestible toys just make her eat furniture because she can’t eat the toy. I honestly don’t know what to do, I’ve never seen an animal do this and I’m tired of dealing with it.
