My boy is snoring more lately and I am wondering if he has some congestion. Do cats get common colds? Is this something to worry about?

Cats get colds, but also they snore too- if you notice bubbles in his nose, runny nose, weepy eyes or if his eating habits change, then I would worry. But as cats grow, they do snore.

Thanks, yeah he's fine otherwise. But it's getting louder and louder, kind of cute actually, but then it hit me it might be something else!

The Sammycat will rattle the windows when he goes to snoring
Glad that your purrbaby isn't showing any signs of a cold.

What about sneezeing?? One of my new little kittens sneezes periodically through the day and his brother Sneezes maybe once or twice a day. could it be allergies? or is it a cold? they don't have gunky eyes or any stuff noses. I was just curious.
