I didn't know cats could have chapped lips! I didn't know cats had enough
lips to be chapped but I think that you might check with the vet to see if
can help! Don't sound serious! :)

Fred,

Plastic food and water dishes are a common cause for lip, mouth problems for
cats. Toss em if you got em and get glass/ceramic. This may be a bacterial
infection in the works from the plastics, so take weezer to your vet to
treat it. If left untreated it can become much worse .. it's good that you
are as observant as you are and have caught this in an early stage.
