Why does my cat drool so much when I pet her?

I have a flame point siamese mix that I adopted from FoF. I noticed that she drooled occasionally when I pet her. I'm now fostering 3 cats for Second Hope rescue. I've recently noticed that she's drooling when one of the male cats loves on her. They love to snuggle up together in one bed, and if he nuzzles her, her drooling is like a waterfall, getting the bed wet. I've had quite a few cats in my lifetime, and never seen this before. Is it normal?

I drool and my cat snores. I've had over 20 cats during my lifetime. Sure, they drool, their eyes might get goopy and now I have a snorer.

Nothing to worry about.

Mine drools too when I pet him. It's great when your getting ready to go to work and there's wet spots on your sleeves and shoulder. :)

Aside from being a dental issue, I think they drool when they are happy and content. I have three that drool on me regularly-the other two- not so much!

Oh! Well, it's good to know she's happy. :) I love her so much, and she's had such a hard life until now. I'll just have to get a towel, I suppose.

I had a cat that drooled a lot, and I thought it was so cute. Then the vet noticed that his two of his teeth were cracked. Poor kitty. He must have been in a lot of pain.

Please take him in for a check-up NOW.
