    I never knew cats could snore

    I woke up at 4am and through the wall heard the owner of my monday-thursday lodgings snoring in his bedroom which is next to mine.

    He drinks a brace or two of tinnies most evenings, slumped in his sitting room watching carp TV and chain smoking rollies. So not surprisingly I sometimes hear a faint sound of snoring. But this seemed unusually loud, even for a drunken git like him.

    Anyway, I soon dozed off. But when I woke again at 8am, one of his cats was curled up asleep on the bed right next to my pillow, still snoring, and as the door had been firmly shut since the previous evening she must have been there all night and what I had heard earlier!

    You should hang round TPD - we had tales of snoring moggies only yesterday.

      Ours snores quite loudly sometimes, it's a comforting sound.

        Testermog Minor snores AND farts while she sleeps. Testermog Major then wanders off and sleeps somewhere else.

          Indeed they do and very loudly at times.

          When we first got NorPussI he used to sleep under our bed where our pillows are, for weeks I used to blame Mr N until one night I discovered where the noise was actually coming from. In the last few weeks alone he's woken me up as he's so loud. NorPussII is not as loud.

            There is a solution involving a brown sack, a couple of rocks and a canal.

                Yes, it could solve your problems. Put the rocks in the sack, throw it over your shoulder, run down to the canal, do some swimming and MTFU instead of picking on small animals!

                  Cats make more noises that all other animals put together. FACT.

                  They have their own language. They can signal birds in the area, eyes on prey, I want to go out, I want to come in, they can purr, there be dogs, there be enemy cats

                  I never believed it till Mrs EO introduced me to the mog world

                  one bashes the keys in the back door. if the keys are not in the back door, he finds them on the table and bashes them. if they are not on the table he sh!ts on the carpet. it's a sort of message i suppose

                    then you bash the cat and Mrs EO bashes you?
