Any of your cats snore?

[Archae]

My calico, Charlotte, does.

As I'm typing this, she's sacked out on my desk just off to my right, making this "Mmmm..." sound when she breathes in.

I accidentally just woke her up, I petted her and now she's purring quite nicely.

1. My cat Mazie

(also a calico) also snores - very loudly!

2. Yes, in fact he's snoring right now, after having taken over half my bed

🥰

[Archae]

3. Only half? He's slipping!

4. The night is young, he's only just getting started. 😉

6. Mine, too. She farts sometimes.. usually when I clean the sheets 😽

17. haha that's new one, mine doesn't do that, but speaking of sheets, I have to sneak the sheet changes

or he'll never let me get the job done, either he lays on the sheets or chases them so I can't get the bed made. Sometimes I just give up and let him have his little victory and leave him there.

5. Nope, but my 15 year old Bichon sure does.

7. our small female snores like an old man. I am convinced

she has a deviated septum.

Sometimes the others will snore but they can't even come close to her level

8. All of my cats have snored.

My current cat, Pixie, sleeps at the foot of the bed and all night I hear this soft little "Snrrrk... snrrrk... snrrrk..." My late cat Milo sometimes snored so loudly that I had to poke him or roll him over to make him stop.

22. "I had to poke him or roll him over...

...to make him stop." Just like a husband -

[Ocelot II]

23. Yeah, I had one of those, too. Same thing but with louder, less squeaky snores.

9. A snoring cat is music to my ears. I love it.

11. Snoring cat? How do you tell it from a purring cat?

I don't think I've ever had a cat that snored.

20. My cat

when she snored it sounded like a human snore. She was a Scottish Fold and kind of had tiny nose.

[PoindexterOglethorpe]

21. Oh, I get it.

We do get to know our cats very well, don't we?

Go Chiefs!

[Polly Hennessey]

12. My Millie makes the same "Mmmmm"

sound when she sleeps. Blissful little girl while she sleeps.

13. Shaw does. It is kind of a soft wheeze

[Buckeye_Democrat]

14. Yes, some of my past cats snored.

One of them slept so deeply that he would continue sleeping despite me opening one of his eyelids, seeing his "third eyelid" still covering the eyeball.

Cats have a third eyelid, or nictitating membrane, in the inner corner of the eye, which is also covered by conjunctiva.

15. My big handsome boy Logan did.

He crossed the Rainbow Bridge almost 5 years ago. He had quite an array of funny little sounds that he made while sleeping, from a little scratchy hum to a faint moaning sound. He also did a lot of twitchy and fluttery movements when he was deep in REM sleep. It was a lot of fun to watch. 😊

16. Yup, all of them.

18. Both of my cats snore.

Both were street rescues and both have some health issues. Our tuxie cat, Cococ, was in a terrible accident and her vocal cords were damaged, along with lots of other parts and she snores loudly & constantly. Our other cat has a chronic sinus issue and he snores too. It's part of the sounds of our lives.

19. I used to

have a Scottish Fold that snored-really loud. Never during the day, just at night.

24. Angel does

She's our 15 year old tortoiseshell. Sometimes it's so loud that I can hear it from downstairs. Even with the doors shut.
