Mocha has recently acquired a taste for carpetand was wondering if anyone could help. He's not eating it (generally)but just obsessively licking it like he is grooming it.
I'm not sure if he likes the texture (maybe it reminds him of rabbitfur?) or the taste of something. Either way I don't think it's good forhim because we recently had the carpets cleaned and I assume some ofthe soap is still left in the fibers. Nothing has been spilled on thecarpet and I vacuum regularly.
When he does this in one spot, I put my hand on that spot but hedoesn't lick me. He simply moves over and licks somewhere else. So nowI've been placing items on his favorite places as if to deter him butit's not working. He licks to the point that the carpet is literallywet with rabbit slobber.
He has toys to play with and everything, but I can't figure out why hedoes this. I'm worried he may be harming himself if he's ingesting soapor something. Any ideas?
