Does your cat snore?

I have two 2-year old females, one black and one tabby. Now I've never heard the tabby snoring but I've heard the black one snore several times when sleeping in my room and this is real proper snoring not purring even though she does purr in her sleep sometimes.

Is this a phenonemon or do some cats actually snore?

    No, my little one snores. I actually think it is quite cute. He also purrs in his sleep. As you say, there is a difference. I don't mind listening to wee one snore. Better than hubby :D

    I have had cats in the past that snored, but my present cat never has...until last night!

    It was actually very sweet and endearing watching his little face as he snored...pity it was drowned out by my hubby's even louder snoring!! :D:D

    Gawd have to be honest, I'd rather listen to a cat snoring than a man....:eek: Somehow there is something with cats snores.....:):o


    Whilst they (cats) snore their little legs go as well dont they! ......hmm Not the same with a man in the bed doing the same thing.....:eek::o:D

    I think it's cute too & I love when mine purrs in her sleep.

    Well, by reading the other comments on here it looks like this is not unusual. I asked because I used to have cats years before the ones I have now and have never once heard any of them snore.

    The present ones even sometimes stand on their hind legs (like dogs do when they're begging) something I've never seen a cat do before either. :D

    Yep, my cat snores so loudly sometimes it wakes me up. She's got quite a "squashed" face so I put it down to that. She's an ordinary moggie, not a specific breed. She's also worse in the winter when the heating is on.

    Don't think it's that uncommon, one of parents elderly cats does it too.

    Jingle doesn't snore, though my sister's cat Tuppy did. :)

    We used to have a proper snigger when Tuppence started snoring in the corner of the room. :D

    Our Maine **** snores almost as loudly as a human! You can hear him at the other end of the room. Black cat snores quietly, but the old tabby has never snored - he's got self-esteem problems and doesn't want to draw attention to himself!
