Cats, those enigmatic creatures, have always held a special place in the human heart. Their independent nature, combined with bursts of playful energy and a seeming disregard for the rules, makes them endlessly fascinating. From the sophisticated Siamese to the goofy tabby, each feline possesses a unique personality. This, however, also translates into some undeniably peculiar behaviors. One of the most baffling for many cat owners is the occasional (or frequent!) inclination to, well, eat things they really shouldn’t. Drywall, in particular, seems to hold a strange allure for some cats. But why? This article attempts to understand this strange phenomenon, and what you should do if you find yourself in a similar situation.

The act of chewing on, or even ingesting, non-food items is scientifically known as “pica”. Pica in cats can stem from a variety of reasons. Sometimes, it is simply a matter of boredom. Indoor cats, especially, may become bored with their surroundings, and a readily available piece of drywall can provide a textural diversion. Other times, there may be an underlying nutritional deficiency. Cats may instinctively eat things that don’t provide proper nutrition, and they do it in order to obtain it. A lack of fiber in their diet, for instance, can lead to them chewing on things to get that needed fiber. Finally, certain medical issues can also manifest as pica, it’s imperative to see your vet if this behavior comes out of nowhere.

The consequences of cats eating drywall can range from minor to severe. In minor cases, a small amount of drywall ingestion might simply lead to some stomach upset, which could show up as a simple regurgitation of the unwanted material. However, drywall is not digestible, so any significant consumption can lead to intestinal blockages. The dust generated from chewing can also irritate their respiratory systems. In some more serious instances, sharp pieces of drywall could potentially perforate their digestive tract. In addition to this, many paints contain toxic chemicals that can cause serious health issues for your cat.

So, what can a concerned cat owner do to protect their feline companions and their homes? First, it’s crucial to identify the reason for the drywall chewing. Increase enrichment can work wonders. Provide plenty of engaging toys, interactive playtime, and scratching posts to redirect their attention. Consider a cat tree, interactive toys, and regular play sessions to keep them entertained and mentally stimulated. If boredom is suspected, this will usually stop the drywall chewing.
