Weird Tux Cat Habits

Tuxedo Cat in Tub
My tuxedo cat does a bunch of weird things: Plays fetch but only with black hair ties, for hours. When he sees flies, he makes a weird crackly staccato type meow and moves his mouth and whiskers really fast and stalks them.
He loves to sit in the bathtub and play with the faucet and meow to it and loves it when i turn the water on a little.
He lets me tie anything around his neck. He will wear scarves/bandannas/necklaces/bow ties etc for days at a time. He will sit and stare off and make a rhythmic chomping with his jaw for 15-45 seconds with his head sometimes at an angle and his eyes squinted. Like he's chewing on nothing.
Does anyone know what that is? He seems like he is in a trance when this happens. He does this all the time.
