Hello,

I am new to this forum and to cats. I have a kitten and she is 13 weeks old. I have noticed the last few days that she sits for 3-5 minutes at a time and just flickers her tongue up and down. I am new to cats, and have no idea if this is normal or if I should be worried. I tried to find info online but no results. Any help is appreciated.

i don't understand what you mean by 'flickers' - is she licking her chops?

She sticks her tongue out of her mouth and is moving it up and down rapidly for 3 minutes at a time. And her body is still when she does this.

I didn't mention that she is a deaf kitty. I should just be safe and contact her vet. Thank you for the help.
