Why's my cat being a weirdo?

[ADHDDDDDDDBOOM]

When we first got her and her brother, she was very vocal, very needy, was really into our food akin of a dog. She would also eat things that aren't food.
She seemed to chill out a bit after a while.

She is 13 months old, so still young-ish.

And she has started all the behaviours again.
Following us around and meowing really loudly. Pestering us for any food we have. Eating things that aren't food.
Her food hasn't changed and she has as much as she likes.

My husband is worried something is wrong.
I think she's just being a weirdo Bengal and she is fine.

She is spayed, she is an outdoors cat, the only disruptive thing that has occurred in the last week is that her brothers eye was removed, and they had a bit of a scrap a couple of days ago.

Sounds like a normal cat to me

Eating things that aren’t food can be a sign of vitamin deficiency apparently. But who knows with a cat lol..!

Bengals are very loud though. You get used to it.

What non food items is she trying to eat? Anything stringy is a vets bill waiting to happen.

Ive had to tell my moggy tonight that actually she doesn’t eat lentil and bacon soup so now she’s in the other room sulking with her plate of chicken livers because I have cruelly denied her food.

She's a Bengal, the following around & being very vocal are normal.

The eating things, she may have Pica. That's an eating disorder where they eat inedible materials and people can have it as well.

More often found in oriental breeds, one of my DBro's Burmese had it. Nothing woolen was safe from her. She managed to chomp her way through the radiator hammock & got stuck between the layers, and my DSiL would find her chewing thoughtfully on the cardigan DSiL was wearing at the time!

If they are indoor cats, you can try more stimulation in the house as they reckon it can be related to boredom and/or stress, though there seems to be a genetic element to it as well.
