Do you think is possible a cat drooling for pleasure?

This one is a quite weird question - well, I guess most of the questions involving my girls are...
Lolo is such a figure...
Point is, this morning she didnt accept the morning meal ( that is not unusual, as most of you know)
I left home and when I returned I brought her one NET CABLE empty reel.They already have, with some adaptations they are good cat amusement centers;
She loved - she always love everything not planned for cats that comes from outside.
But after the rubbing and patting it she drooled a water like liquid!
I've  got worried and run for one antitoxic product - I dont know exactly why, but since the stuff is not dangerous at all and vet approved I gave her a few.
Keep careful watching after and about one hour later ( 10;30 am) she accepted some food.Needles to say, she refused lunch at 12am ( too much close)
Cat was in those absollute crazy moments/days she has sometimes, active ,playfulful and playing fight with me.She even grabbed my undesware - the one I'm using, not one placed somewhere
Does this story make sense for any of you?
Do  the cats can show satisfaction drooling? If not - can you imagine what can be happened?

Akira is a very drooly cat, too.  When she is happy, if her face is touching my clothes, they get wet.  I always figured it was just a normal happy kitty thing.  Her eyes close, she has a blissful expression on her face and has the happy paws kneading away, all the while she is drooling.

So, little girl likes PVC tubes...
But this is not the first one I gave them and I didnt see such affection for the previous : they all liked and after me covering the tube with sisal rope and the upper side with EVA the thing became part ot their furniture and they use to sleep on.
But covering the surface with EVA makes the surface smooth - but also hide some loved  holes so I guess I will keep the new one just the way it is .
My intention  was keep that backyard as an extra toy but yesterday evening I brought it  to living room together with Loreena and she just decided that was her new nap spot- after playing a lot.Not even went bathroom to play with kids - poor ones!!
Another day not having breakfast - and playing with the thing.Its quite hard to know from where she ( ok, we - Im not am example of good eater also)  got energy for .
Btw, do you think rescued cats can have a, well, metabolism adapted to eating more than need somedays ( when the food is special for example) and keep energy  reserved for the others?
I mean, a wild/feral feline cannot count with meals everyday at the right time the way our pets can...

Old Cammie cat used to drool so much (mouth and nose) when she was really into getting petted that when she'd shake her head we'd get "kitty raindrops."

sorry apple, I misunderstood ya!!! about the antitoxic...-)

as far as the reel with plastic tube there are some plastics that make cats crazy just like it was catnip....one of mine goes crazy over a bag of carrots for some reason...has to be carrots and still in the plastic..
they have such sensitive noses..they are picking up some scent that we are totally unaware of.

Opus, theres no catnip in a reel of net cable empty.Its just a plastic tube with two wood circles on the extremes - big size ones
And I GAVE NO ANTIBIOTIC, I gave an ANTITOXIC - its just  a mix of vitamines and hepatical protector.The only danger it can cause is you lost time if the stuff is serious and the product not adequated for..
But thanks for the fasr answer anyway.

oh yes indeed cats do show satisfaction by drooling especially when they are given a product with a type of catnip....so don't worry hon-)
...they get these 'crazy' super energy bursts....completely natural.
apple I wouldn't give her an antibiotic unless there is evidence of infection...if you overuse these products they build up a resistance than they will no longer work...
((hugs)) to the girls♥
