My cat's tounge is hanging out!

My cat is 15 yrs, and she seems to be hanging her tounge out. She keeps doing this every other day. One day she might be doing it, next she is fine! She does have a bad tooth that the vet said not to bother with, as shes so old and might not survive the operation. There is a strange plant that she was eating, but we cannot seem to find what it is and if it is toxic or no. She is eating and drinking fine.

I would take your kitty to the vet - it may be that there is something going on with the tounge itself - cats have been know to get things ensnared around their tounge and it can be serious. It could be something in his throat or something going on in the belly. Or it could be something really simple - but you won't know if you don't have it checked out. Good luck!

Joey is right. It could also be caused by a stroke. The only one who can tell you what's going on is your vet.
