Why do cats drool when I touch them?

The reason why a cat drools when touched may be because it feels more comfortable and relaxed when being touched, which also shows that it trusts its owner very much. Secondly, if the owner touches the cat's sensitive parts, such as the chin, head, abdomen, etc., it will be affected and will drool. In addition, if the cat suffers from stomatitis, gingivitis, dental calculus and other oral diseases, it will lead to increased saliva secretion in the mouth, resulting in drooling. It is recommended to take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time.
1. Comfortable
When a cat is stroked very comfortably, it will drool and purr. This is a normal phenomenon, indicating that the cat is very relaxed. As long as there are no other abnormal reactions, the owner does not need to worry too much.
2. Being affected
Cat’s chin, abdomen, head and other parts are relatively sensitive. When these sensitive parts are affected, their saliva will be stimulated to react, resulting in drooling. However, different cats may have different sensitive parts, so owners may need to investigate gradually.
3. Oral diseases
If the cat is drooling and accompanied by other abnormal phenomena, such as listlessness, loss of appetite, vomiting, etc., then it is likely to be suffering from stomatitis, gingivitis, dental calculus and other oral diseases, inflammation The impact will increase the cat's saliva secretion, so the owner will see a lot of saliva flowing out of the cat's mouth. If this is the case, it is recommended that the owner take the cat to the pet hospital for examination in time to confirm the specific cause of the disease and then treat it accordingly.
