Yes. Domestic cats tongues are also rough. This lets them scrape the flesh off their prey.Try putting a bit of your cat's favorite treat on the back of your hand and offer it to her.

Why do cats let their tongue hang out?

Hello there, id say it has to do with grooming and picking up hair by the tongue. I used to work at a pet store if that's any help. But maybe asking a vet would be better. Anyway that's all i have to say lol. :oD Catch! Well; cats may have rough tongues to this as an extra; but it's shown that they have rough tongues which actually have some kind of small cup like bits on their tongues which allow them to lap up water because their tongues are so small unlike dogs who have larger tongues allowing them to drink water alot easier without the need for these cup like bits. Cats are particular about cleanliness and the rough tongues help with this. Dogs are more laid back and wait for people to wash them.
