Cats have a rough tongue covered in tiny barbs called papillae that help remove dirt and parasites from their fur when they groom themselves. Additionally, their saliva contains enzymes that have antibacterial properties, which helps prevent infections. These factors contribute to why cats don't get sick from licking themselves.
