Pet's info: Cat | Domestic Shorthair | Male | neutered | 1 year and 6 months old | 20 lbs
Hello, my cat recently started drooling heavy and I’m really concerned. I would like to know why this is happening considering this has never happened before. He’s eating and drinking water fine, he’s acting perfectly fine. There is NO foam around the mouth area .

This usually happens due to a dental or gum disease, if this persists for more than a week, take him to your vet to get it checked and treated. gum inflammation is very common in cats, in some cases it can be treated medically with very high success.
