Hi, my cat (10 years) yawns all the time but i am not sure she is yawning because she is tired. Could there be another reason? Nausea, teeth? etc.

Thanks

There are some medical conditions in humans which lead to excessive yawning. So, perhaps there are some in cats as well. hmmmmmm.... I'm not sure.
Perhaps the others will have some ideas.

Is your cat on any new medications. I don't know if it works this way for cats. But for humans there are some medications that will make you yawn frequently as a side effect. I've actually been on a couple of them!

They say when cats yawn, it's their honest opinion openly expressed! Yawning indicates stress, ambivalence, or sometimes preparedness for action. Hmmm...
