It depends on her sleeping position. I am told one of my cat nieces is a huge snorer, however.

more amusing, his butt whistles sometimes. I can hear it from a dozen feet away and I find it hilarious.

Both dogs snore. All of the critters dream (and "talk" in their sleep) along with body movements. The border collie has nightmares about who knows what. I wake her up and she always looks relieved.

Sometimes I think she might have allergies. She sneezes and sometime sounds a little congested.
She snores softly, though. She's my love cat. I call my bed the 'Ralphnest'.

Hi,
My Sophie snores when she gets into a good deep sleep. It is funny to listen to. I want to know more about the butt whistling now.

Peace

Darth is only 4, but he has this trombone thing going when he's really out. Not all the time, but when he does it's monumental.

While awake he's perfectly healthy, bouncy and feisty.

I think he just likes to emulate his old man!

I'm wild over black cats. I've had two who both lived quite long lives. Both were female and delicate featured.
Man, I miss them. Ralph the squish fills the gap tho.

And yes....I've taken him to the vet, since audible cat farting is not a good sign.

Not a thing wrong with him--$500 in tests later.

And sometimes twitches his paws and tail, but nothing inordinate.

This cat, named Racer due to his love of fast cars (but that's another story), was a mix. He was 23 pounds and the vet said with a bone structure that he had he was underweight. But he cold out snore the humans. We were all woken up many a night due his snoring. Asked the vet what could be done and if it was healthy, he said he never saw a cat that could snore like that and had no clue what to do. Strange cat!
