Cats will take bottles (or other things) because it's what they are born to do. Bottle shooting may be to imitate hunting or practice skills, or it may be to vent their inner energy. Bottle licking may also be a reaction of cats to the surrounding environment. For example, cats are more likely to lick the bottle when they see birds or other animals.
If your cat often hits the bottle and causes some damage, you can try to provide it with some suitable activities and toys to help It vents its energy so it's less likely to go back to the bottle. You can also try to give your cat some encouragement and rewards when using the bottle, so that it learns that using the bottle is not a good habit.
