Why is my cat drooling after I used a eucalyptus oil diffuser?

Updated On September 23rd, 2025

My cat has been drooling all day. I had a vaporizer on with eucalyptus oil in it. Could that have made her drool?

Yes, it coukd be that. You need to be very careful with essential oils and cats. I suggest you stop using it and see what happens. If the drooling continues it could be a dental problem in which case she should see a vet.
