dribbling cat

[seaniebones]

what does it mean if a cat dribbles? my cat has done this for a few days now.Her nose is running too. She hasnt lost her appetite though.Do i need to take her to the vet?

The only time our cat used to dribble, was when we were stroking her around the chin area - ecstacy!

If your cat has a runny nose, it might be best to get her checked out at the vet's, just in case & for your peace of mind. Good luck.

I knew a cat that dribbled, and it turned out it had been hit by a car, and the jaw was kind of slack. Prob get her checked.

I agree that you should get her checked out.  Could be a problem with her mouth, such as a tooth abscess. This would also cause her nose to run.   Don't neglect it, because mouth problems in cats can be serious and cause quite serious illness.

my cat did this after injuring a tooth...on a bird!

My cat has dribbled since day one -she is a Balinese. she sleeps with her nose straight onto the bed and leaves a wet ring - she is perfectly healthy and the vet says for her its normal.
