RESUMO:

Compulsive behaviors are observed because they are out of context, repetitive, exaggerated, and constant. Fixations for sucking, licking, chewing and ingesting nondigestible items are the oral compulsions. This study aimed to characterize oral compulsions in domestic cats, comparing the characteristics of each group. The research instrument chosen was the questionnaire for online distribution directly to feline owners and also through social media. The data were tabulated and submitted to the Chi-Square test and were considered valid when p <0.05. The results show that felines affected by these disorders are young cats of 1 to 3 years old, with no predilection for race and short coat. The compulsion to chew and ingestion were the most cited, and their predilection items consist of plastic and wire. About 8% of the animals that ingest foreign bodies have already undergone gastrointestinal tract surgery and 12% require some type of medication due to ingestion complications.
