Hi, I have a little tabby cat who is about 8 years old. And I
have no idea what is going on but, she does this very odd thing where
she gulps very hard and does strange things with her tongue ( reminds
me of a snake ). I have no idea what this is, and I am a bit worried.
If anyone knows what she might have, please help.

hairball
string wrapped around her tongue
nausea
foreign object in the throat or esophagus
bad tooth

Could be a number of things. If it continues more than a day or so, or
gets worse, take her to the vet!

It is really wierd, it happens every day, but I don't know if it hurts
her or what...I'm just worried.

DEfinitely at least call the vet to ask his or her opinion and you should
really probably have it checked out.
