Cats may lick wood due to curiosity or a mineral deficiency. While small amounts of wood are generally safe for cats, ingesting large pieces can cause blockages or splinters in their digestive tract. It's best to discourage this behavior and provide safe alternatives for your cat to chew on. If you're concerned, consult your veterinarian for advice.
