Solutions to excessive drooling in American shorthair cats:
1. Excessive drooling in American shorthair cats may be due to stomatitis, pharyngitis or gingivitis. If there is only slight drooling, you can replace the cat's usual drinking water with light salt water, and then take vitamin B2 orally. If it's more serious, you can use some anti-inflammatory drugs. If the cat salivates a lot and loses appetite, he must go to the hospital for treatment. If necessary, tooth extraction can be performed.
2. Remove foreign objects stuck to the mucosa, trim sharp teeth, and stop taking oral irritating drugs. Give liquid food, drink water frequently, and rinse your mouth with water after feeding.
3. If the excessive drooling of American short-haired cats is caused by poisoning, the cat needs to be induced to vomit in time to reduce the toxic substances in the stomach, and then sent to the hospital for treatment immediately. After treatment, the cat can be given pet electrolytes, which can replenish the electrolyte loss caused by vomiting and diarrhea in poisoning and promote the recovery of body functions.

1. American short-haired cats eating foreign objects by mistake will cause drooling. If the cat also drools at the same time, Symptoms such as retching and not eating occur.
