Sometimes, we don&#8217;t even bother debunking it for our safety and of our cat. When it comes to our lovely pets&#8217; mouths, there are a couple common misconceptions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taking a look at these myths, might help you decide whether to let your cat lick or drink from your water cup.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cats_mouths_are_cleaner_than_our_mouths\"><\/span>Cats\u2019 mouths are cleaner than our mouths<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Unless you take care of your pet\u2019s mouth the same way you take care of your own, it won\u2019t be as clean. Hopefully you brush your teeth and floss every day, but you are unlikely to be treating your cat\u2019s mouth with the same level of care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to infrequent brushing, cats usually have a much higher level of bacteria than humans do.&nbsp; Proper oral care and dental check-ups are two of the most important things that you can do to ensure that your cat\u2019s mouth isn\u2019t as dirty as a toilet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cat_saliva_has_healing_properties_for_wounds\"><\/span>Cat saliva has healing properties for wounds<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Although you may have seen your cat licking its own wounds, it\u2019s not a good idea to let them lick yours. The bacteria in your cat\u2019s dirty mouth could lead to infection at the wound sight. The best thing that you can do for a wound is to clean it with water and soap. The only way our pets can help with our healing is by constant cuddles and their love.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_truth_about_a_cats_mouth\"><\/span>The truth about a cat&#8217;s mouth<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A cat&#8217;s mouth is prone to diseases and disorders, too. They can be caused by injuries, infections, or inflammatory conditions. There are approximately 130 microbes in a cat\u2019s mouth that can lead to a plethora of diseases. If you get bitten by a cat, it can lead cause infections if the wounds are not adequately treated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Make sure to regularly take your cat for a complete oral examination to detect any oral diseases before the develop and progress.&nbsp;The most common problems in a cat\u2019s mouth include gum disease, mouth burns, benign tumors in their gums, excessive salivation, and tooth decay.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_actually_in_cat_saliva\"><\/span>What is actually in cat saliva?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While some of us might have enjoyed sharing drinking water with our cats, you should avoid it in the future, as consuming cat saliva can cause numerous problems. Let\u2019s take a look at what can actually be found in a cat&#8217;s saliva.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Allergens<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Allergens from cats don\u2019t come from the fur, as is commonly believed. In fact, it is cat&#8217;s saliva that contains the protein that causes allergic reactions in humans. When a cat licks its coat during grooming, it transfers the protein from their mouth to their fur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bacteria\"><\/span>Bacteria<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Like humans, felines also have different kinds of bacteria in their mouths. Some of these bacteria can make people who are exposed to them sick. One of the most common types causes Cat Scratch Disease, which people can contract after being exposed to a cat&#8217;s saliva through a bite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not all cats spend their time indoors where they only have clean food to eat. Outdoor cats are especially prone to foreign and harmful bacteria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Enzymes\"><\/span>Enzymes<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Cats usually lick their own wounds. A cat&#8217;s saliva may contain enzymes that can act as natural antibiotics for them. This enzyme prevents infection and promotes healing. It also keeps the fur healthy by distributing oils in it. They will not have the same effect on humans, so don\u2019t let your cat lick your wounds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cat_diseases_that_may_affect_humans\"><\/span>Cat diseases that may affect humans&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The following are the different types of infections found in cats that can also affect humans. This includes bacterial, fungal, parasitic, and viral infections.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Bacterial_infections\"><\/span>Bacterial infections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Cat Scratch Disease (CSD)- <\/strong>CSD can spread if an infected cat bites someone, or licks a person\u2019s open wound. This causes swelling and redness around the wound. Inflamed lesions and pus may be present.<strong><\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Pasteurella multocida<em>&#8211; <\/em><\/strong>&nbsp;A bacterial infection that can be acquired from a cat bite. This causes soft tissue and skin infections.<em><\/em><\/li><li><strong>Salmonella poisoning- <\/strong>Salmonella can be transferred by an infected cat to anyone who comes in contact with the cat\u2019s stool, saliva, scratch or bite. Symptoms are vomiting, high fever, abdominal pain, and diarrhea.<strong><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Parasitic_Infections\"><\/span>Parasitic Infections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Fleas- <\/strong>The most common itch-inducing parasite on the cat\u2019s skin can also be a parasite to humans if an infected cat is not treated with anti-flea treatment.&nbsp;<strong><\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Scabies- <\/strong>An infection caused by parasite mange mites which burrow themselves into the hosts skin, causing raised lesions and severe itching.<strong><\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Roundworms and hookworms:<\/strong> Feline intestinal parasites. These parasites can be spread through contact with cat feces-contaminated dirt.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"_Fungal_Infections\"><\/span>&nbsp;&nbsp; Fungal Infections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Ringworm (or dermatophytosis)<\/strong>&#8211; Ringworm is not actually caused by a worm, but is a skin infection caused by a group of fungi. It can leave scaly, gray, and dry patches on the cat\u2019s skin. It can be transferred to humans if the infected skin comes in contact with a person\u2019s open wound.<strong><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viral_Infections\"><\/span>Viral Infections<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>Rabies<\/strong>&#8211; Rabies is the most common viral infection in cats and dogs. It can be transferred to humans if they are bitten by an infected animal. However, the saliva of an infected cat can also transmit rabies if it comes into contact with someone\u2019s open wound.<strong><\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Common_Questions_regarding_sharing_water_with_your_cat\"><\/span>Common Questions regarding sharing water with your cat<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_cats_mouths_dirty\"><\/span>Are cats&#8217; mouths dirty?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A cat&#8217;s mouth is not as clean as you might think. Cat&#8217;s mouths are quite dirty, especially if they feed on unclean food and spend most of their days outside, like a stray cat does. Fortunately, there are things you can do to take care of your cat&#8217;s mouth. Practice good teeth brushing and proper oral hygiene on your cat and take them to the vet for regular check-ups.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_sharing_drinking_water_with_my_cat_fatal\"><\/span>Is sharing drinking water with my cat fatal?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Sharing drinking water with your cat is highly unlikely to be fatal, but it can cause plenty of health problems. How sick it can make you depends on a few factors, such as the cat&#8217;s health status, the water and container&#8217;s cleanliness, the human&#8217;s immune system and possible allergic reactions.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wrapping_up\"><\/span>Wrapping up<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Perhaps the main reason why we might have the dilemma of letting our cats share water with us or not is that we love them. Many people treat their cats as their children. However, while spoiling and giving them all the love in the world, you have to think about your own health. If your cat makes you sick, it\u2019ll be harder to take care of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3703\" srcset=\"https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-683x1024.jpg 683w, https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-768x1152.jpg 768w, https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-1024x1536.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-1366x2048.jpg 1366w, https:\/\/animalsa2z.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Is-it-bad-to-share-water-with-your-cat_-template_animalsA2Z-2-scaled.jpg 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Asking whether you can share clean water with your cat is like asking if you can lend a good friend water to drink from the same glass as you.&nbsp; It<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3702,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":[],"categories":[15],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v16.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Is it bad to share water with your cat?
