Well every hears alot about Woden on the forums as he is the ill one around here. But something that has always amused me about his brother Loki is he snores.. alot, and loudly He used to have watery eyes alot too, our first vet gave him a shot of something(forgot what) and no more runney eyes, but the snoreing continues. So as no vet is really concerned about it, is it normal for a cat to snore? Does your cat snore?

Sigh, my comp is snoreing again.. time to go poke it, wish he would stop sleeping behind my moniter...

They can snore for all the same reasons humans do, overweight, breathing problems, allergies, colds, probably even GI could cause it. (just a guess on a long shot for the last one, I do not know that one for sure in cats)

My Sho snores loudly. While he is a bit overweight, this isn't something that just started. He's been snoring since he was a kitten. I think his is caused by a bad cold he had as a kitten, it was awful
he'd sneeze horrible green-yellow goo out his nose.
On his last vet visit I asked if that past cold could have caused some sinus damage, the vet said 'yes' and that it wasn't too uncommon. She didn't seem concerned about it.

If you suspect something is causing it, ask your vet about it.
