So, my cat’s been sticking her tongue out like she’s forgotten how to cat. At first, I thought she was just being weird (classic), but apparently, this is called a “blep” and it’s a whole thing. Sometimes it means she’s super chill or mid-grooming, but other times it’s her way of saying, “Hey, I’ve got something stuck on my tongue,” or “I just smelled something wild.” But here’s the plot twist: if your cat’s tongue-out moment comes with drooling, weird breathing, or acting all out of sorts, it’s vet o’clock. Dental drama, heatstroke, or even a hairball from hell could be lurking. Also, shoutout to all the squishy-faced cats who literally can’t keep their tongues in—y’all are adorable. Bottom line: If your cat’s happy and healthy, enjoy the bleps. If not, don’t play vet roulette—get them checked out. Anyone else’s cat do this?
