Cat dribbling excessively

Recommended Posts

Hello pet fans

 

Sorry if you're eating but my cat has started dribbling a lot the last couple of days - it's clear, but quite thick - it appears to be coming from just one side, we've tried to look at his teeth but he's having none of it ! I'm taking him to the vets first thing but I just wondered if anyone has any idea what it might be ?

 

Ta!

Hi it could be to do with the teeth or gums so def worth checking out at vets, our Maine Coon behaved very similar and had to have some teeth removed. Other possibility is that he might have eaten something unpleasant one of mine used to froth at the mouth whenever he wore a flea collar

Is he pawing at his mouth at all?

How did you get on at the vets?

Id also say a tooth problem or gum infection

 

Hope he/she is ok now x

Could he have eaten something caustic as my mums cat did this when it had licked creosote someone had painted a fence with, luckily we knew as it had it all over its paws we had to rush her to the vets.

We had a cat that dribbled after we gave it a flee treatment and flea collar.

 

Was fine after we took the collar off.

Sorry, I forgot to reply :/

 

It's his back teeth - bad and infected! Had a course of antibiotics and I've booked him in for a dental next Friday !

 

Will keep you posted (if I can remember lol )

 

Thanks all
