Thanks everyone. You've put my mind (and Tiger's!) at ease.

Various colorations aren't necessarily abnormal,
as long it's a consistant state, not a changing one.
Have your vet check it to be sure.
What you don't ever want to see is "blueing" of
the gums, indicating the cat is having trouble
getting oxygen and needs immediate emergency care.

I'm probably going to make this sound worse than it is, but does anyone
know
if it's normal for the front part (just around the front teeth) of the
upper
roof of a cat's mouth to be darker than the rest of the roof, which is
more
pinkish?
