Cats and the Barnes and Noble Shopping Bags

Question: do your cats do this to shopping bags from Barnes and Noble?

The picture above is Coco on Saturday night when we came home from dinner and a trip to the local book store. This scene plays out in a similar fashion every time we have such an evening. We place the bag on the floor while we settle in for the evening, and within seconds one of our cats cautiously sniffs the bag, pats it a little with a paw, then dives into it either with bites of aggression or fits of nudging love.

And this doesn't stop until we empty the bag, crumble it into a ball, and shove it deep down into the garbage (sorry, recycling folks...the cat attacks leave us little option).

This act occurs on no other bags that enter the house. Giant, Borders, Wegmans, Trader Joes, etc.; only the B&N bags seem to draw the loving attention of our felines.

It is just weird.

Does this happen to anybody else?
