My cat loves to lick anything plastic like our laundry baskets. This morning I found her rolling around on some plastic packaging that was on our kitchen table. Weird.

All my cats do that. I don't understand why either. Maybe someone here can tell us. Mine like to lay on magazines and any kind of paper.

My cat sleeps in and/or on, plays & kneads plastic bags. I think it's the crinkly noise plastic makes that attracts some cats.
Right now my cat is cat napping inside a Shoprite plastic grocery bag which he pushed upside the front door.

I had a cat who loved to gnaw on the plastic cases from VHS tapes. Blockbuster got a few returns with teeth marks on them.

We had a cat a few years ago that loved plastic bags. She got her head in one once (It was a liner from a waste basket that she was able to pull out) It got stuck and she went tearing through the house scared to death with the bag over her head. Thank goodness I was home at the time (I had a difficult time catching her and removing it without getting too clawed up) 🙁
Needless to say, we went for years where we didn’t use plastic bags in the house. (She lived to the ripe old age of 17)

I use my plastic bags for when I scoop the litter box. I always put them up immediately because I don't want my cat Henry in them. I'm afraid it could suffocate him.

I think it's the crinkle factor.
I never let my boys have plastic bags because I read they might get their heads stuck in them or the handles tangled around their neck.
As to licking anything plastic, I have no experience with that.
