Cats may stick out their tongues occasionally, but this behavior usually doesn&#8217;t point to a problem. If you go online, you will find numerous pictures of cats sticking out their tongues. Other unpleasant factors may cause your cat to stick out its tongue.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, why is my cat&#8217;s tongue out?

When the cat leaves its tongue out, <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/\/wiki\/Pheromone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">pheromones<\/a> will accumulate on its tongue. Cats will use the pheromones to analyze the surroundings and other nearby cats. For example, the cats may identify whether the nearby cat is ready to mate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"645d51\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #645d51;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-13-jpg.webp\" alt=\"cat with open mouth\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-1242\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-13-jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-13-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/1-13-768x512.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">(cat with open mouth)<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"missing-teeth\">Missing Teeth<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>If your cat has lost one or two canine teeth, it may stick out its tongue. Cat&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Canine_tooth\">canine teeth<\/a> help keep the tongue inside the mouth. So, when the teeth are lost, the tongue sticks out without the cat noticing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img data-dominant-color=\"c3bbb9\" data-has-transparency=\"false\" style=\"--dominant-color: #c3bbb9;\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"805\" src=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-16-jpg.webp\" alt=\"A cat licking its teeth\" class=\"not-transparent wp-image-1241\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-16-jpg.webp 1000w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-16-300x242.webp 300w, https:\/\/lovecatguide.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2-16-768x618.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\">\uff08A cat licking its teeth\uff09<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"attention-seeking\">Attention Seeking<\/h2>\n\n\n<p>Your actions may encourage your <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Feline\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">feline<\/a> friend to occasionally let its tongue slip out. For example, if you give your cat attention, laugh, or give treats to the cat when they stick out their tongues, that behavior will become more frequent.

Well, cats also do the same when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=Cj5I0jrexRc\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">relaxing or sleeping<\/a>. During sleep, the cat&#8217;s muscles relax and cause the mouth to open.

The breed includes Burmese, Himalayan, and Persian cats with smooshy-faced traits. The anatomies of these breeds are not ideal for the cat to keep the tongue inside the mouth at all times.
