Pet's info: Cat | Turkish Van | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 4 months old | 3.3 lbs
Today i just saw my cat licking the bedsheet which seemed to be totally dry. I thought it was thirsty so i gave it some fresh water as her water bowl was almost empty. It did drink but after that it went back on the bed and started licking the bedsheet. Is it normal? Could my cat be sick?

This does seem like a strange behavior but I wouldn’t be too overly concerned about it. Your cat may have smelled something on the sheet and she was just interested in it. As long as she isnotherwose acting normally, eating and drinking well, and usingnher litter box then I would not be to concerned.
