I've only had wilma 5 days, she came from a rescue centre where she had recieved a dental check up and had 1 tooth removed and another drilled. She drools more than i've ever seen any cat, often she has long drool trails hanging from her mouth. In the past 24 hours she has not kept any food or water down and seems aggitated whenever I go near her

the drooling is quite normal after dental treatment, however she may be in pain after the procedure. did they give you pain relief to continue at home if not contact them to get some or have her examined. offer soft food as the gums may be sore, ensure the diet hasn't changed as this can cause upset tummy. it may be a combination of the dental, going into a new environment. good luck
