And it's not me. It's Smudge. I was sitting on the couch and looked over at him and he's neck fluff was all wet and he had made three wet spots on the cushions from his drool.
Now, I've had cats drool before. When Freesia goes for long car trips she drools the whole time and comes out of the carrier soaking wet. But Smudge hasn't gone anywhere. We haven't had new/different/unsual cleaning supplies out. I haven't seen him eat anything (though of course that certainly doesn't mean he didn't).
So, I called the 24-hour vet. The gentleman was very friendly and helpful. Basically, we should do watchful waiting. If he's still drooling a lot; if he's lethargic, not acting like he normally does, then we bring him in.
He was walking around me and playing with a piece of paper on the floor while I was talking to the vet. So, I'm hoping that it's a passing phase. The house has been stricken with hairballs lately (one was so kindly placed on the windowsill in the living room). Maybe it's just related to that.
In any case, I'll be watching him. Poor little guy.
