Yes, a cat's mouth is cleaner than a human's, and possibly cleaner than a dog's, too. The saliva that destroys germs and keeps the mouth clean is more powerful in cats than it is in humans or dogs.

A cat's mouth is cleaner. The average cat mouth has about 16-18 different types of bacteria, while the dog mouth has over 60 different types. They tend to have less because they open their mouths less often, thus not attracting so many microorganisms from the outside world, while the dog is constantly panting and breathing heavily through their mouths. Another reason because of this is that dogs tend to lick and bite things more than cats, whether it's exploring a new object or person that came into the house, drinking toilet water, or eating dirty socks. Cats, on the other hand, sniff and paw things when they want to play and only occasionally bite. A cat's mouth is also cleaner because of their eating habits.
Cats have a pair of vomeronasal organs on the roof of their moth that help them sniff out a particular scent. Usually cats do not breathe through their mouth.
