Thread: My cat's jaw clicks

    My cat's jaw clicks

    Has anyone ever heard this before? Sometimes when my cat Omar is finished eating, his jaw makes this clicking sound as he licks his lips. This is a brand new development. He's 10 years old. Thanks!

    I have never heard of it in cats. But I know in humans, jaw clicking is a symptom of TMJ. Maybe you should ask your vet.

    I forgot to ask, is your cat a male or female? Most of the cases of tmj are in females. I was just curious.

    He's a boy. I don't know what's going on, but he's just great otherwise, so I'll just keep an eye on it. Thanks!
