Question

Is it bad that my car is excessively licking a fur blanket? Pet's info: Cat | American Shorthair | Female | spayed | 6 months and 21 days old | 6.5 lbs

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! Generally, licking something like a blanket is not necessarily a bad thing. However, my concern is more making sure that she is not swallowing the fur especially if it clumps as that could result in an obstruction. Good luck!
