Default Marlo's drooling

As I was leaving for work I noticed that there were several wet spots
on the bed. I checked the butts of my three cats but all were fine and
there was no evidence of problems in the litterbox. Then I noticed
that Marlo was drooling a bit. I've had that before with a cat and it
was likely some bug that he had eaten.

There is no evidence of any other problem with Marlo. She seems
perfectly insane as always. I tried to get a look into her mouth but
was only able to push up the gums a bit and look from the side. I
didn't see anything wrong.

This would be the worst day to blow off work since I have meetings
that I really need to be at so I had to go. If she's still drooling
when I get home we're off to the vet.

Yes, please take her to the vet. Drooling can mean any number of
things, from tooth/gum problems, poisoning, and more. Worth checking
out just to make sure she's all right.

Default Marlo's drooling

Last time squeekers was doing this he had a piece of toe nail stuck in his
gums. Once I got it out he was ok. Hope it's nothing serious.

My new friend, Rascal, is a drooler too.

The vet says she does it when she is happy...

Good for you. With as many problems as I've had lately with our cats,
it's better to nip things in the bud (if there is a problem).

My Gracie drools when she is terrified. She has done it twice at the vet.

Both Ozzy and Archer will drool when they're getting especially good
skritchin's.

Hugs,

Rascal mainly does it when I'm lying down and she's laying on my chest...

She likes the vet. Not the trip to the vet, but she seems to like the vet.
