If you notice water dripping from your cat's mouth, there may be some reasons:


1. Dietary problems

   - The cat may drink too much water directly, or the quality and temperature of its drinking water are inappropriate, causing dry mouth or throat discomfort, which in turn leads to increased salivation.


2. Dental and oral diseases

   - If your cat has bad breath or swollen gums, it may be caused by oral infection, dental caries and other problems.


3. Digestive problems

   - Cats may also experience increased salivation when they have indigestion in their stomachs.


Here are some tips and tricks for dealing with increased drooling in cats:


1. Regular oral examinations

   - Go to the veterinarian for regular oral examinations to prevent tooth decay, oral infections and other oral diseases, and avoid discomfort to cats caused by oral problems.


2. Check your diet

   - Make sure the cat has enough drinking water, and ensure that the drinking water is clean and at a suitable temperature. Also check whether the quality and taste of your cat's food is adequate, and whether there are refreshing fruits and vegetables for emergency rehydration.


3. Identify digestive issues

   - If the cause of increased drooling is due to indigestion, a light diet needs to be provided to ensure that the cat’s eating habits and digestion are normal.


4. Pay attention to cleanliness

   - Regularly clean the space and supplies around your cat, keep them dry and ventilated, and avoid causing mildew and other environmental problems.


In general, if you find that your cat is drooling more, you should promptly analyze the possible causes and communicate and negotiate with your veterinarian. Make reasonable adjustments and treatments according to different situations to ensure the healthy and happy growth of cats.
