Does your cat do this? I'm concerned. *Pidge is home *pix 6/4*

Medusa,
You are an excellent meowmie and if it's freaking you out, have it checked out. Trust your instincts. Calvin sticks the it bitty end of his tongue out and it cracks me up! That tiny bit of pink agains all his blackness.
Go with your meowmie radar and have Puddy checked out.

Maybe Puddy is literally being a copy cat but if it is concerning you then get her checked out for some peace of mind

have you called the vet?or looked under his tounge?
is he still doing it?
just curious on an update.hopefully good news.

Thanx for the replies everyone. I checked Puddy's tongue this morning, underneath, too, at least as well as I could considering this is the Pudilator I'm talking about here. LOL All looked and felt normal to me. She doesn't stick her tongue out all the time, just occasionally, and admittedly, it's when she appears to be content, such as when I'm giving her a noggin noogie. I guess it's because her tongue comes out so far and not just the tip sticks out. I'll keep watching her as well as look for other symptoms that were mentioned in Candace's post and, if I see anything slightly abnormal, I'll give my vet a call. She seems ok in every other sense so, in order for my vet to fully examine her tongue, she'd have to be tranquilized and I surely don't want to do that unless it's absolutely necessary, given that she's in CRF and only 5 lbs. I'll keep you updated.

Smokey the Elder used to stick her tongue out just because. Moby sometimes sticks a little bit of it out, when she's being goofy.

IF I BRING IN A FOOD THATS NOT POPULAR, OR DO SOME EVEN STUPIDER THAN NORMAL, THEN THE FOUND CATS STICK OUT THIER TONGUES , BUT NORMALLY THEU STAY WHERE THEYRE MEANT TO BE!!!

Smudge did that for a short while, and drooled a bit too, which he hadn't done before. I noticed that he had bad breath, so I started giving him tooth-cleaning treats. Once we found some he wasn't allergic to (he can't have Greenies, but Meow Mix Crustacean Crunch and C.E.T. fish chews are fine and he likes them) his breath and drooling cleared up, and he can keep a civil tongue in his head. :-) Does Puddy get anti-tartar treats?

Love, Columbine

Our Raven sticks out her tongue, but she has no teeth!!! Hope your Puddy will be OK!!!
