I've had well over two dozen cat fosters in the last three years and four cats of my own, but never had one that drooled like a dog with happiness and joy while being petted.
This behavior is flattering and a little messy, LOL. I didn't know some cats drooled like dogs when very, very happy. Have any of your cats done this?

Yep, I had a feral that adopted me and he was a droolin' fool! He would get in my lap and "knit" and purr and drool. Unfortunately, since he was an outdoor kitty mostly and ate and drank who knows what, he also passed gas when he did this. It was quite unpleasant!

Oh dear, thanks for a laugh! I've had nothing but rescued ferals for years and one of my present five is a right little drooler. Under "normal" petting she's fine but get her going and it's like a gushing fountain of spit ... An "outside" one I had a few years ago would trill up a purring storm and drool so much that she blew large bubbles. Had me in stitches many times and her feline buddies would be quite riveted by the performance. Never had a farter, though.
Boyfriend Cat was a champion drooler and when he shook his head it would go all over the place. it really was a mess but he was so happy and content it really didn't matter. Lord he was a sweetheart and even tho he has been gone for 22 years I think about him every day. He was a stray who showed up when another stray was in heat, hence his name.
my little roast is a drooler. he is seriously affectionate. he usually only drools during our morning hugs or after work. its like we re-introduce ourselves to each other. he is the best. hes only 3 and has always done it.
Oh yes! My husbands cat used to knead his chest, purr and drool all over. It was quite the sight!
