Can snoring be a symptom for a cat and can it cause death?
Tabby is a female cat and is 11years old.My cat was overweight about 6 months ago. She was put on perscription diet food by the vet. She lost weight and was back to a healthy weight. She always had some kind of snoring problem or congestion in her nose. Recently, she passed away. Luckily I wasn’t there to see what happened. My brother saw it and said she might have had a heart attack and died instantly. Is there some kind of diagnosis or treatment that I could have prevented?…. I just cant get over it.
I seriously doubt she could have been treated for anything. Eleven years is an average life span for a cat.
But she could have had congestive heart failure if she snored or was congested.
Sometimes their gums and tongue turns blue and they breathe heavy for a while with that. It’s an elderly diagnosis for a cat.
I know I would have a very difficult time with the death of my kitties but rest assured you gave her a good home and loved her and that’s more than most cats get.
Oh, by the way, I have a female that snores and she’s not overweight at all. She has always snored and she’s only 4 yrs old. I think like people, some cats snore, some don’t.
