Before giving your cat any medication, please consult your vet first! Only your vet will be able to tell you the correct dosage for your cat.

A cat drooling after giving Benadryl seems to be common. A cat will drool or foam at the mouth when eating something with an unpleasant taste, so it is likely that Benadryl does not taste pleasant to a cat.

If you are at all worried, take your cat to the vet immediately. It is very easy to overdose a cat on human medication, and if this is the case the cat will need emergency treatment.

Do worms in cats cause drooling?

No, drooling is not a sign of your cat having worms, but weight loss; lack of appetite and the fur on the cat appearing dry and not shiny. However, some medications for cats with worms can cause drooling. If you have not seen your vet please do so immediately as worms in cats can be transferred to children and adults. Worms are often normal in kittens or sometimes adult cats so please see your vet and express your concern about too strong a dosage of worm medications that could make your cat drool. Some cats will drool when they are content or want to be stroked, but it is wise to get the vet to give your cat a good going over physically.

What causes drooling in cats?

Some cats love their owners and it is a sign of affection if they rub and some cats may drool which is not a sign of anything being wrong with them, but just their particular personality. It's a form of affection. Like humans, cats can have more saliva than others.I also have a cat who I have had since he was a kitten and he is now 13 years old. He drools a lot when he purrs as he gives affection. It is hilarious, sweet and sometimes a little disgusting but we love him, drool and all. I notice that when he purrs he keeps his mouth open slightly and doesn't seem to swallow the saliva. I believe that is why he is "sharing" with the rest of us.We also have a cat that drools when cuddling, but if your cat does not normally drool under these circumstances and is drooling at other times there are several causes. Some are minor but others are not. See what your cat has been eating - ours occasionally chomp a slug, which is relatively harmless, but a huge drool producer. Other items are not so harmless. Check with your vet if the drooling lasts more than a day.


What is the meaning of drooling?

Drooling can mean your dog is trying to cool off, or your dog is nervous, or your dog is sick. Also, some dogs drool naturally (for example, bull dogs and Newfoundland dogs).Cats can drool when they're happy or when they are sick.

How much childrens benadryl should you give a less than 5 pound chihuahua?

I use an eyedropper and give mine only a couple of drops. I have to give mine Benedryl when she gets her vaccinations.Additional Answer:Dogs can have 1-2mg of Benadryl per pound, every 8 hours. This can be used to treat allergic reactions, and it also has some anti-anxiety effects. As a general rule, Benadryl is very effective for both dogs and cats, as it is for humans, and, as with humans, the primary side effect is drowsiness, with dogs and cats, as well.
