Cats throw up a little. Small tongue is outside.

There are many reasons why cats spit a little small tongue outside, as follows:

1, heat dissipation: because the sweat glands of cats are underdeveloped, cats will spit out their tongues to dissipate heat when the weather is hot or cats exercise vigorously. This is a normal physiological phenomenon. The owner can move the cat to a cool and ventilated place to rest, and prepare some clean drinking water for the cat to avoid heatstroke. Generally, cats will return to normal after a short rest.

2, stress response: If the cat is timid, or a cat that has just arrived at a new home, it will be stressed and stick out its tongue because it is unfamiliar with the new environment and nervous. At this time, the owner needs to appease the cat. You can put the cat in a familiar partner, let it relieve its mood alone, and don't let anyone near it, otherwise it will be more nervous. In the meantime, the owner needs to provide the cat with adequate diet, water and litter box, and also try to reduce the stress reaction of the cat at ordinary times.

3, foreign body stuck in the throat: If the cat is stuck in the throat by a foreign body, because the throat is uncomfortable, the cat will stick out its tongue and drool, and will continue to scratch its mouth with its claws. The owner can try to open the cat's mouth and check the kinds of foreign objects. If it is a smooth foreign body, try to take it out with tweezers. If it is a sharp foreign body, it is suggested that the owner take the cat to a pet hospital for treatment to avoid serious injury to the cat's throat by self-treatment.
