Have you ever owned a pet that snored?

My dog used to snore. And kind of yip, as though she were chasing squirrels.

Ohhhhhh....my dog snores so LOUD!!!!!!!!!! she saws some logs!!!!! ZZZZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Yes, I currently own a cat that snores. She sounds so adorable when she does!

Yes, my cat snores. She has one day left to snore...she's been sick for awhile. We just returned from 10 days from Phuket and she looks horrible. All skin and bones, difficulty walking, etc, etc. My mom kept telling me I'd know when it was the right time to have my cat put down. I now know what she means. I've found a vet that will come to our boat to do it so that Kitty Cat (the only name she answers to...she was originally a stray in CT who moved to FL and later Hong Kong with me) doesn't have to deal with the stress of going to a vet's office.

I had a pekinese that snored big time. She always slept with me and would wake me up at night with her snoring. Oh, how I miss her.

Aww. I'm so sorry to hear about your cat. But, it's great that they'll come there to do it, so she won't be scared.

Poor baby!

I currently have a dog who snores. She's snoring right now as a matter of fact. She burps and farts, too. But she loves me and is loyal so I put up with it.

so sorry to hear it.....((((Kirst and Kitty Cat))))

No. My previous cat breathed a little loudly sometimes, but I wouldn't call it snoring.

both my dogs

My dog snored when we had him. We had to put him to sleep 2 years ago

Ny nephew and I had a black Pug we named China. She snored sometimes, being a Pug.

When Michael moved in with his fiance, China went to live with them. She got out and was killed by a car. It took Michael 4 days before he could call me with the news.

We got her same time as the rats. My white guy, Bob, use to ride around on her back.

Yes, in the past I've had dogs that snored. My dogs now on't,or at least I have never heard them.

Yes, my dog snores, and I've had a few cats that did as well.

yes my 2 cats snore all da tym!

We had a blond German shepherd dog that snored, and occasionaly bark in his sleep.

every pet I have had has snored.

My dog used to snore pretty loudly. I loved her anyways

My cat snores.

None of my pets have ever snored. Although I am not so sure about the goldfish.

Yes, some of our rats snored when they slept on their backs (unusual).

I'm lost, what does this denote if you don't mind my asking

But my cat bites me-sometimes
and she tickles my feet with her tail

my beta fish snores and i can tell by hearing the sound of bubbles coming from her small bowl...

Pugs snore, big time. I had a Pug puppy for a while until she went to live with my nephew and got killed

I miss visiting and have my little China girl sleep and snore in my lap.

Somebody else wrote about a now passed pet that snored. China was just killed a few months ago, so it is still very fresh with me.

I usually hate cats, but just by that one sentence I already like your cat!

My apologies, I didn't realize China was your pet

It's ok. I'm a real animal nut, in all variations!

You had rats? Actual rats that snored? There's an attack of cuteness coming on!

My cat snores. She is so cute!

My cocker spaniel who died two weeks ago snored all the time. It was cute and annoying at the same time.

I'm sorry to hear that! I owned a cocker spaniel when I was younger and at an earlier time, a springer spaniel. Spaniels are one of my favorite breeds.

I especially enjoy my kitty snoring when I'm home alone and the house is deathly quiet. Then I'll hear the soft, wheezy snore of my kitty curled up sleeping in "my" chair (her's really) in the other room. She wheezes a bit on top of the snore because she has pollen allergies just like her owners! It's comforting to hear her when I'm home alone, especially when I'm at the computer.

> I usually hate cats, but just by that one sentence I already like
> your cat!

Who are you responding to?

You!

Did you look at the picture of my kitty on my user page?

I've had cats, but they never snored.

YES!!! my blue healer Australian Shepard does ALL the time.

Yes, I currently own a pet that snores. A cat, too. It's nice snoring, though. Makes me feel relaxed!
Sweet survey.

Yes, I currently own a shih-tzu that snores. He's round, fat, and rolls over onto his back when he sleeps. This is usually when he starts snoring, which is often very loud.

Yes, I admit she looks kinda cute. Okay, she looks very cute.

She is extremely cute, but then I'm prejudiced!

I have a snoring dog. But he's usually fairly quiet.

My family kept rats for about 12 years - between 2 and 5 at a time. One of my rats, Vir was really, really fat (but difficult to avoid as reducing the food avilable to him would also have reduced the food available to his friend who was very small) and so he clearly found it more comfortable to sleep on his back (and even to be held on his back, like a baby, and have his tummy tickled). I can only describe the sounds he made as snores Some of our other rats would sleep on their backs from time to time, and they would sometimes make similar sounds. Vir was a very odd (cute) rat - he'd also sit like a person on his backside, with his big belly and then his front paws cushioned on top of there. He later developed a huge tumour on his stomach - the size of a tennis ball by the time he died, so he invented even more creative ways of sitting and sleeping. He was probably the most laid back rat we ever had - he just wanted to sit with a person and be stroked or curl up with his friend (Valen) or sometimes playfight with him (he used to let Valen tip him on his back - it was very cute to see this tiny delicate rat tip the sumo wrestler of the rat world over ).

I'm fairly new to rats, got Jay and Silent Bob back in July. So, after 9 months, I'm hooked, big time.

The vet was great---very gentle and patient. By the time that he arrived, Kitty Cat was semi-conscious. I had been up most of the night checking on her. Anyway, the vet said that Kitty was in renal failure. It took him some time to find a vein that was in decent shape. He had a nice way with her. It was a sad day, but definitely the right time to put her down.

Thanks.

It was definitely Kitty Cat's time to go. It was still difficult to make that decision, though.

You're welcome.

I've only owned goldfish and guppies and I don't think they are capable of snoring.

(((((Kirst))))) I'm glad that it wasn't a totally horrible experience for you. It sounds like this vet is an awesome person, someone who truly cares about animals. That's so great.

I haven't had rats for a little over a year now and I really miss them. My brothers and I are all on the verge of moving out and my mum (who loves rats) wants a few years grace for her and my dad to go off places without needing to find a rat-sitter (although our next door neighbour has always been happy to do it) at short notice. I think she'll fold after a bit though, and I'm pretty sure I'll want rats again as soon as I have a place of my own where pets are allowed.

I used to love having her around when I was alone - she used to know I wanted company and jump on my knee and lie on her back so I could stroke her belly, then flop and snore. Now I've moved out of home I miss her so much!

For me, all it took was one (little 3 legged Jay) then with my love rat, Bob, I got double hooked. Bob is my main "squish" Now that he's older (10 months) he's right on me all the time, a white rattie asleep in the crook of my arm , all tired out from play, looks SO cute with my red fuzzy top. Rats have both dog and cat like traits, I'm all the time amazed at their antics.

Aww, I miss my ratties

might make you homesick
I got them a super nice Martin's cage, but they still prefer the 5 drawer dresser, Rat Towers. It's totally theirs now... thank God it wasn't a hostile takeover! The $72 Martin's R-670 is the 5 star restaurant. Love my little guys!

Our kitty never does that. She doesn't like to be held or be on anyone's lap, but she does like having her belly scratched and between her ears too.

My cat she snores at night and my gerbils they snore as well so the answer is yes my pets do snore?

So sweet Jay is a lovely colour, but the smartest rat we ever had was an albino.

My PEW is my little genius and lover, too. Jay is too independent, but Bob is really my little guy!

That's so cute, I love the expression on their faces when they are having their belly scratched! It's weird, our cat never liked to be held, then she had kittens. After she had taken care of them and they had gone, she started jumping on people's laps. I think she just wanted someone to clean!

Our cat loves to lick my son's hair. She just keep doing it until he pulls away. I think she thinks he is her kitten and she must groom him.

That's what I love about cats - they try to look after you as well.

Yep...our kitty definitely thinks we are her kittens.

Yes, I have a cat that snores

no but my current dog either has nightmares if thats possible or some type of seizure

Our kitty has developed a new, and very cute habit. This last weekend my son bought himself new shoes and whenever he takes them off, our kitty has decided that they are the perfect spot for her to lie on when napping...generally with her face stuck down inside one of the shoes. Silly kitty!

Yes, both my dogs I had snored a lot.

that's really cute

my cat

Yes, yes it is!

I used to have a kitten that sucked and kneeded it's tail with it's paws when it was ready to go to sleep..she did this all the way thru adulthood.

The Sheltie I have now snores. None of the cats I ever owned snored.

all my dogs snore

all three of my dogs snore now. My mom constantly yells at my dad cuz she thinks hes the one snoring

What breed is your cat?

I know you said that your son's shoes were new, but does he have, um, smelly feet? I have had cats that love shoes, the smellier the better. They loved to push their face into the shoes and purr like they were on catnip.... so strange!

American Domestic Shorthair.

Not really. His feet aren't what I would call stinky...at least I wouldn't consider them stinky. To me, stinky feet are the feet you can smell across the room and his aren't like that. She did it the first day he bought the shoes too and he had scarcely worn them. She's an odd little girl.

The other thing would be that since they are a new thing in "her" territory she is marking them as hers...

Well, they are her shoes, just as the chairs and loveseat in the living room and my son's bed are her's!

They ALL do! Not only that, my min pin has some serious silent but violent gas bombs!
The Shepherd and Lab burp. They will walk right up to you like they want a scratch on their head and burp, then walk away.

Yes, my dog. She snores really lound. Sometimes I can't tell if it is the dog snoring or my partner.

No, but my dad has a bulldog that snores. The whole house shakes, windows rattle... she's about 60 decibels!
