LOL! We had one that snored so loudly, you could hear it in the basement under the bedroom - she slept near the heating duct. Daintiest, prettiest cat you ever saw, but snored like a large male human.
Speaking of nocturnal habits, does anyone know if blue-eyed cats in general are less nocturnal than cats with the normal green/yellow/orange eye colour? Last time we took ours for her physical, I mentioned to the vet that she didn't seem to see as well in dim light as any other cat we'd ever had, and that she was much more diurnal than nocturnal. The vet said she would have a different ratio of rods and cones in her retina than a normal eye colour cat. When she examined Taffy's eyes she said that the retina was wavering (jiggling?), which apparently is normal for siamese and siamese mixes. Has anyone here had a non-colourpoint blue eyed cat and noticed that it wasn't very nocturnal? The colourpoint gene is a form of albinoism, but I don't know what's going on gene-wise for other blue-eyed cats.
