As with humans, cat snoring can be caused by a variety of causes and health issues.

Cats with short noses, to which the Persian cats belong, snore particularly often. They are characterized by a large round head with a very flat nose. This leads to narrowing of the airways and, as a result, shortness of breath and snoring.

Infections can also cause nighttime snoring. A cat with a cold and a stuffy and dripping nose tends to snore.

Typically, your cat's snoring isn't a serious problem, but if it starts to interfere with your sleep or becomes restless, there are some tips to help correct the situation.

Put your sleeping cat is in the correct position

Place a pillow or bed with a slight angle to elevate your cat's head when sleeping. This will help improve airway ventilation and reduce snoring.

Create a calm and safe sleeping environment

Make sure your cat's bed is in a quiet and peaceful area where he will not be exposed to stress or excessive noise, which may contribute to snoring.

Control weight

Being overweight in a cat can increase the risk of snoring and breathing problems. To maintain a healthy body, your cat needs regular participation in play and physical activity. This will help him to stay in good physical shape.

Contact to your veterinarian for advice

If your cat's snoring continues to bother you or gets worse, it is recommended that you consult your veterinarian. He will examine and evaluate the health of the animal's respiratory tract, and also offer recommendations or additional measures to improve the situation.

It is important to remember that some cat breeds, such as Persian or British Shorthair cats, are more prone to snoring due to their respiratory tract. If your cat is prone to snoring due to breed genetics, additional measures may be necessary to manage the condition.
