@snood,
I have owned quite a few cats over my 50 plus years and my 10 year old tabby has suddenly decided to have this problem over the past year or so. He doesn't have it all the time but when he does he drops little droplets of the foulest smelling fluid on either my desk or bed or cloths if sitting on me. Have to wash everything when it happens as I have a really good sense of smell unfortunately. Have read lots of forums -will try worming him, changing his diet then off to the vet if neither work. Poor big boy - and I do love a cuddly.
