HELP! My cat Abbott is a problem drooler when he purrs |
|
Seriously!
He just jumped on my lap and started to purr. As soon as the purring starts the drool just comes running out like a bad leaky faucet. I'm now covered in Cat drool.
Is this normal?

when she's doing her special paw rubbing/massage routine. Then she drools all over my shirt and I have a damn cat drool wet spot. The only good thing about her doing her little paw routine is that she's putty in my hands, I can do whatever I want to her and she doesn't resist. :D

10. My hair often smells of cat spit. |
|
Ours is a frustrated hair stylist, and sometimes spends as much as an hour on the back of the chair arranging my hair 'just so'.

14. This is bizzarre...... |

I was out of town over Christmas and boarded my cat, Sheba at the vets. When I checked on her, they commented on what a drooler she was. They said it's because she's happy!!!!!!!! I always thought it was because she'd had too much to drink :shrug:
