Pica in cats is usually related to the consumption of fabric as part of wool sucking behaviour
+
*This may start early in life in cats that are inappropriately weaned.
+
*Wool-sucking usually ceases spontaneously before the age of 6 months.
+
*It can be treated using a combination of environmental enrichment, redirection of the behaviour and psychoactive medication.
