My 11-month-old cat's heart rate is 80 BPM. Is this normal?

At rest it could be easily around 180-200 beats per minute. Hope this answer was helpful, but please do not hesitate to contact us again on the forum or by requesting a consultation if you have any more questions or to discuss it any further.

The heart rate can change quite a bit depending on the cat's activity and it's normal for their heart rate to be lower when they are sleeping. A heart rate of 110 is fine for a sleeping cat and a low heart rate is rarely a concern unless there are signs of a decrease in activity or other signs of a problem like fainting. Otherwise, I would not worry about this and it would be good to note this as normal for future reference. I hope that helps and all is well with Kitty.

A normal heartbeat for a cat is around 140-220 beats per minute, but is usually on the lower end when resting. Cats normally have a higher temperature than people (Usually around 101.5 degrees F) so areas that do not have a lot of hair, will feel warm to the touch. As long as Charlie is acting normally, I wouldn't worry too much. If he is lethargic, vomiting, or having diarrhea I would schedule a check up at your veterinarian.

This is abnormal and concerning. A normal respiration rate for a cat is 24-42 breaths per minute and maybe slightly higher in a kitten, but not that high. Please have him seen by a veterinarian as soon as possible.

A cat's normal heart rate is between 120-220 beats per minute. It is normal that a cat's breathing rate can change while they are sleeping, it can increase and decrease in response to depth of sleep and any dream they may be having at the moment. Some cats do snore, but that is usually when they are asleep. It's not normal for a cat to snore when awake, and if he's done it since he was a baby, it could be that he has a congenital defect causing it. I would have Tota examined by a vet for this issue. There is no need for you to measure his blood glucose, and you should not do that on Tota. It requires a blood sample from him, and that can be difficult to get from cats. A vet will be best to determine if and when he needs his blood glucose checked (i.e. if he has diabetes), and will do the test themselves.

Thanks for using Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach! This is considered very abnormal in a cat. Abnormal breathing in a cat can occur from conditions such as pneumonia, heart failure, asthma, bronchitis, among other possibilities. If her pulse (not respiratory rate) really is 70 bpm as you pointed out that is very abnormal for a cat and at the same time even if it was her respiratory rate it would also be abnormal. For that reason, I highly recommend that you have Marciella evaluated by your local emergency clinic or your veterinarian if open as soon as possible for further assessment and treatment. Likely diagnostics include chest radiographs. Treatment would be dependent on findings. Good luck!

Yes it is normal for you to be able to see her chest rise and fall as she breathes but she shouldn't be breathing fast. Usually when resting they will have a respiratory rate of less that 20 breaths per minute. You can count this by counting each rise in her chest over a minute. If she is breathing rapidly or open mouth breathing then there is likely something seriously wrong like a respiratory infection or heart problem. And I would advise you to seek medical attention as soon as possible. I hope this helps.
