PSA: While chewing plastic is usually benign, silly cat behavior it can sometimes indicate something is off/wrong

Learned this lesson the hard way once, so spreading the knowledge just in case :)
Since this cat was getting diagnosed with diabetes I think it's a safe bet they identified the cause of the plastic chewing.
Definitely seems likely!
