Most cats dribble whilst purring. However, with Louis Catorze, because of his protruding fangs which prevent his mouth from fully closing anyway, the problem is much worse. And, when he shakes his head after a massive purring session, it’s like monsoon season in the tropics. 

I’ve never had any photographic evidence of this, until now. It would actually be strikingly pretty, were it not so gross: 

Aww. And also eww.

    Having lived with a Newfoundland dog for 10.5 years, I know all about drool. Dangling, dribbling, flying, etc. But Louis is the first cat I’ve known about that does something similar. Unique!

    The picture is impressive. Now, we can truly feel what happens when Louis shakes his head even through our screen. I’m shuddering with horror. I’m puzzled. Do I really need to thank you for it? 😺

    That’s why I would never have a dog! Also, dogs lick you… But yeah, it’s more rare in a cat, this picture is pretty impressive! Miss Penny drooled, too, but she didn’t share her head afterwards 🙂

          A cat’s tongue has a rough surface and I don’t let Timon lick me more than a few seconds.

    Our old tortoiseshell Holly used to purr so hard when her Human Daddy stroked her that she let loose a rivulet of drool. Human Daddy called her Juicy.

        That’s mean because it’s his devotion to you that causes it?? I don’t paticularly like Theo drooling around my neck, cat drool parfum is particularly gross especially after a meal or a post litter tray wash… but I do love that he loves me and feel very honoured that him not my cat that he gives me his great big hugs??
