Why is my cat drooling so much and having difficulty eating?

Question

My cat seems to be drooling a lot. Like a lot more than normal. Im guessing it has to do with a dental or gum disease? He is having a hard time eating. What should I do? Pet's info: Cat | Bombay | Male | unneutered | 1 year and 9 months old

Dr. Strydom, DVM · Accepted Answer

You are probably right. The drooling could very well be related to a dental issue. It is also possible that he could also have an injury to the jaw (like a fracture) or a tumor/ulcers in his mouth. The only recommendation I have for you is to get him to a vet as soon as you can. They will be able to figure out what is going on and then prescribe the best treatment so Ziggy can get back to feeling better. There is nothing you can do at home to fix any of the issues that may be causing his symptoms. Best wishes.
