Cat's head warm but body normal. Is my cat sick or is it normal?

Question

Hello, I wanted to know why my cat’s head only remains at an elevated temperature(like she is having a fever) but her body is at a normal temperature. She has been eating and behaving normally. Is there anything wrong with her? Or is it a normal thing? Thanks in advance! Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Female | unspayed | 1 year and 2 months old

Unfortunately the only reliable way to measure the temperature remains intrarectally with a thermometer. If she is otherwise fine and not showing any sign at all, I would not be worried about her. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.
