Cute Cat Snore!

When in non-REM(Rapid Eye Movement) sleep the cat is in a state of deep relaxation, and is more likely to snore. Overweight cats and breeds with flat faces and short noses are more likely to snore. Allergens may also cause snoring. Snoring is the result of an obstruction of the airway usually produced by the uvula and soft palate. Diet and exercise will cure this snoring problem by shedding all the extra flesh from your cat. Allergies: pollen, spores, dust, all irritate the sinuses, which get swollen and produce the snoring sound. Moving the cat to a different room may remove some allergens that are causing the snoring. Humidifiers can provide extra moisture in the air to reducing snoring.
