Cat Drooling
I've seen this discussed in the past and have observed in my guy that when
he's very happy, he sometimes drools. I've also noticed that when he sleeps he often drools. He's a happy, active, almost two year old, inside only, Siamese mix. He has good eating habits (thanks to my discipline), good and consistent litter box habits and drinks plenty of water. He has no mouth problems that I can ascertain and has regular visits to the vet (one coming up in a couple of months). I'm a bit worried because now that I've been looking, I notice the wet spots where he's been sleeping. Frankly, I do the same thing myself sometimes and there's nothing wrong with me, but I am a bit of a worried Dad type. Comments would be appreciated.

Timmy drooled due to tooth & gum problems. If you are worried, please take your kitty to the vet for a dental checkup. Early diagnosis will save the cat some pain and you some money. Muffin, on the other hand, drools when she's happy, drools when she's sad, and drools when she's upset. She has no dental problems, has done this all her life, and it seems that this is just another way she expresses herself! HTH, Sara |

lol i had to laugh at first because my male cat does the same thing and i
never thought anything of it except lol that it was gross. Anyway we got him when he was a baby and we had to feed him with a bottle and kitty formula for his mother had abandoned him. So he sucks on things aparently looking for his mother still. When he gets tired or loving he sucks on whatever he is on weather its my shirt sleeve or a blanket or the couch. So he is sucking when he is sleeping and making drool spots. Its gross but I really dont think in my case there is anything wrong dental wise with him but i will check his gums and see. let me know about your cat and maybe yours has the same odd issues as mine hehe. |
