Hey Spaz, my cat Buddy is the same way. I think he's part dog or something. Buddy digs in my purse and pulls stuff out to eat. Sunglasses case, wallet and yes, even my checkbook. I hoped that Buddy would of out grown this, but he's 3 now and still loves to rip stuff up. All I can say is keep really important papers put up in something the kitty can't get into. Good Luck
