Title: Cat Hiccups?
Post by: LadyJane on July 06, 2009, 12:13:22 PM
I guess it's perfectly possible but I've never seen a cat hiccup before.

Samson has been running round like a mad thing this morning as it's raining and he won't go outside.  He's now sat on the windowsill in the living room making a chirping sound which I can only describe as a hiccup ut sounds like he's swallowed a bird  :shocked:  :rofl:

Yep Millie The Milster often gets hiccups,  funny sounding and last for quite a while,  she normally gets her purrs all muddled,  so one moment she is purring the next she is hiccupping !

 :rofl:

I think they've stopped now. He's decided it's best to sleep them off and is flaked out on 'his' side of the sofa.

First time one of ours burbed I realised I didn't know cats did that.

Course Gizmo had to do it in my face!

Not heard one hiccup yet though.

Was there something tasty outside the window? That chirruping noise is done when thinking mean thoughts about the birdy on the fence  :evillaugh: i get several at a time trilling away when a pigeon lands near by

I don't think he was even looking out of the window, he was looking into the room.  Maybe he thinks I'm a pigeon :rofl:

Heh, Giz is a gassy cat he tends to burb or poot when you pick him up.

I had Smudge for 14 years and he only hiccuped once - I couldn't believe what I was hearing.  So sweet.  :Luv2: :Luv2:

Never heard a burp or hiccup pass the lips of any cat.

Farts on the other hand, Dave likes to shove his backside in your face and let one rip :evillaugh: Wonder if he's treated Bonnielass to one of those yet :evillaugh:

The Munchkin is a terrible hiccuper. I think its because he tends to bolt his food. It does make us laugh though!

Cat burps  :tired:

Mr T does HUGE burps - both ends .....  not had actual hiccups yet.

Chloe - what can I say ?  For such a little lady her burps are phenomenal!!! 

Silly girl sometimes scoffs down her food (especially if we've added Go-catSenior Biccies) and then burps and brings the lot up  :sick:

 It used to worry me, but shes fit and well (she had a checkup when she first started to do it) and just a gutsy-girl. . . . . . :evillaugh:
