Cat Forum / Cat Anecdotes / April 2008anti snoring product
Most people don't know that just by changing variables in your environment (like the climate inside your room), you could put up a good fight against your constant snoring problem.George http://www.thesnoringstop.com > Most people don't know that just by changing variables in your > environment (like the climate inside your room), you could put up a > good fight against your constant snoring problem.George http://www.thesnoringstop.com Who cares? If it's your spouse, a poke it the ribs usually suffices! (And if I snore, my cats don't care - they snore, too, sometimes.)

Oddly, I have learned that while the snoring of the spouse bothers me a great deal... I can't get to sleep if he's out of town, so I've become "used" to hearing it, even white noise doesn't help me sleep.

A book to teach us how to stop snoring. There are quite a few members of the clowder that could use the assistance. Tell me, what, if any, herbs are recommended? Some of them are dangerous for both humans and cats. Do we have to change pillows? How about sleep locations? I personally like to sleep on the carpet in the hall way, should I move to the ramp in the living room? Should I give up the mantle place for better sleep? What about the kitchen table? Please help me with these important decisions. How about sleep positions? Do I need to give up sleeping in the modified dead starfish mode? Should I stop sleeping on my back altogether? Should a cat insist on having their hoomin to sleep on, or can the hoomins get away with saying no? Does the type of snores mean anything? Tanada has a growly snore, although it is soft in volume. Miss Calico Girl has loud rumbley snores that match her purrs. Huey snorts in his sleep, does this mean anything? How about the hoomins? When it is raining out, the fat wench sounds like she's ahauling freight. Mike sounds like a school bus most of the time. PaRob sounds rattlely and hisses from time to time. Is there meaning in these sounds? What about volume? The fat wench is really loud and the blonde wench is quieter. The toms are in between. Does your book answer these and other dilemmas for the well bred feline? Can we get our money back if your book doesn't work for us? Will the techniques in your book get the d-thing out of our house?

LOL, true. DH used to snore so loud a long time ago, so I made him go to a Dr to get it checked out. Turns our he has sleep apnea, and has to wear a mask when he sleeps. Good thing I made him go see the Dr, as this can be life-threatening. Wonder if kitties get cat-apnea? PookieCat snores and Mutt (RB) really snored.

Or various and sundry other methods of torture depending on how asleep they are and how awake you are. My daughter says that she's given up sleeping. Her baby snores just like her daddy. Still remember when my MIL would visit and complain to me that her sons snoring was keeping her from sleeping at night.

[quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Jo My late husband snored, and so do I. If I woke him up, he would turn over, go back to sleep and stop snoring. I can snore in any position. I have been a passenger in a car, fallen asleep, and snored so loudly I woke myself up. One night when my daughter was a teenager out on a date, my husband finally went out to the living room couch to get away from my snoring. My daughter came home, walked into the hallway, and heard snoring in stereo. Joy > > Awww heck, if I remember right, a good elbow to the ribs solves the > > problem! [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Jo Our son snored since he was a baby, and it got worse. He was an allergy kid, and I kind of dismissed it as being because his nose was "stopped up" much of the time. It turned out he had terribly enlarged adenoids, and the air passages in his nose were just "built" too small. He needed surgery. He was 10 before we took his snoring seriously and got him the help he needed. It made an amazing difference.

He will most likely have to use the cpap for life - apnea usually gets worse over time, not better. :( Although if his has a specific cause that can be fixed, then he might be lucky. I'm due for another sleep study myself. I was diagnosed 10 years ago with very mild apnea, not quite bad enough for a cpap, but I think it's gotten worse. I don't feel very rested when I wake up, even though I often sleep 10 or even 11 hours at night! Also, I do sometimes wake myself up with my snoring. Sometimes being single is for the best. :)  SignatureJoyce ^..^ To email me, remove the triple-X from my user name. <bastXXXette@sonic. > I'm due for another sleep study myself.

Sometimes being single is for the best. :) Joyce, please get your apnea checked out. It can be very serious and life threatening and IF you do have to use a CPAP machine, it will save your life. I'm serious here. When you have sleep apnea, you not only snore loudly, you stop breathing for a few seconds or more and this can be a serious danger to your health. Apnea will make you really tired, and you can fall asleep during a 'meeting' which happened to DH a lot of years ago when he was working. He was so ashmed when his co-workers laughed at him.. this was before I got him to see a Dr about it. He's been using a cpap macine for over 20 years now. Sleep Apnea is a nasty thing. Just some info, I've learned over the years. If you want to find out more about sleep apnea, I can try and find a link for you. Hug Kyla Our son snored since he was a baby, and it got worse.

(plus, he had sleep apnea, and still uses a CPAP at age 25) Sherry Hi Sherry, I had surgery on my nose when I was 13, (almost 50 years ago). I had a deviated septum. I still snore, to some extent, or so I'm told by DH. I still can't breathe right to this day. Luckily, my Dr gives me samples of Nasonex which helps be breathe My DH also has sleep apnea and has to use a CPAP machine for about 20 years now. I don't mind the quiet 'white noise' of the machine. Good thing you caught it early, as sleep apnea can be life threatening Hug Kyla > Our son snored since he was a baby, and it got worse. He was an > allergy kid, [quoted text clipped - 17 lines] > Hug > Kyla Thanks, Kyla. I don't believe he has ever been given Nasonex. He has used Flomax especiall during ragweed season (the poor kid has terrible allergies on top of everything else). It worked well in the beginning, but seemed to lose effectiveness after a while.
