I am completely perplexed as I've had many cats and do not know what is going on with two (2) 5-month old kittens I have, which are both female. 2 days ago I noticed a wet spot when I picked up one of the kittens but did not think much more about it until the kitten rubbed against my hand and left a wet spot on my hand. I smelled my hand and it smelled musky (if you know what I mean, without being graphic) and I thought that maybe the kitten was in heat. I had scheduled the surgery for getting them fixed already but wondered if she had gone into heat early. I was FINALLY able to identify where the wetness was coming from as I picked up the other female and she had a clear liquid (for lack of a better word) pooled around her lower lips. I touched it and it smelled the same as the other cat, so I watched for it on the other cat and just now finally was able to see this "pooling" of liquid on her bottom lip. I'm wondering if they have a cold ... if there is such a thing or what in the world it is, but I've just never seen anything like it and I'm very concerned.
