My Turkish Van (what their head markings look like) does drool a lot. But nothing like that, hah. Hope they're good. Those are such sweet smart cats.

We have a turkish van cat. He’s very loving and affectionate, and isn’t just the noisiest cat I’ve ever met, he’s noisier than every other cat I’ve ever had combined. My favorite thing is when I walk in the front door, I’ll hear a thud as he jumps down from wherever he was napping, then he sprints toward me while meowing the whole way, and ask for all the pets I can possibly give him. Naturally, I’m happy to oblige him.

Does it have gum or kidney issues?

Yes. He is missing some teeth in the back and cannot digest solid food.

Hurt himself a lot when he was feral.
