Lots of cats enjoy chewing on pieces of plastic or cellophane. It doesn't mean they are hungry and looking for food. They just enjoy chewing on it, in the same way that some humans enjoy chewing on pencils or their fingernails. Whenever I open a pack of cigarettes, I have to bury the cellophane wrapper at the bottom of the trash, because if I leave it at the top, my cats will take it out and try to eat it.

If swallowed, these pieces of plastic can block their windpipes and choke them, or get caught in their digestive systems and require surgical removal. Just keep the plastic away from them and you should be fine.

Why do cats eat mouse?

It's all part of the grand design of the food chain: the bigger fish eats the smaller fish. The dog eats the cat. The cat eats the mouse. The mouse eats the grain. The grain eats nutrients from the soil. The soil is rich in nutrients because of a decomposing dog. Or cat. Or mouse, even. Thus, we can conclude: the worm is on top of them all in the food chain !
