Hi and here is an odd question....

My partner and i have a 13 year old seal point siamese....

Nym is an alert, active, eats, drinks, plays and poops/pees regularly cat.

He even travelled to the new apartment well and quiet and has taken it over as HIS apartment....

However, Nym snores. He will be sleeping quietly, then all of a sudden he snores... just like a person does... loud, then it will quit, but then it will start again....He does NOT do this when he is moving, only when he is still.... Like laying on Petra's lap, sitting on the windowsill etc....

He has no discharge from his nose or eyes, is fully vaccinated and is as I said otherwise healthy and alert?

Does anyone have any idea as to what this may be?

is your cat overweight? i have a pretty fat 8 year old kittie and he snores to. it might be due to that, but reading sites show it isnt supper uncommon that pet snores.

I have a few kittys that snore when they are sound asleep. The only one that has a medical reason is my American Shorthair, who's face is a bit flat between the eyes and nose. You may want to have the vet check for any abnormalities in his nose or sinus.

Nym is not overweight.... hes about 4 kilos, and we had to take him to the vet last month when he burnt his foot on the stove... and he was weighed then, and the vet said he was ok.....

He's got a normal shaped head and nose area, hes not flat faced.....

Thanks fr the replies...
