Question

It's normal for cats to regularly breathe through their mouths.   True  False

Answer 1

False. Cats typically breathe through their noses, but they may occasionally breathe through their mouths if they are stressed, ill, or have a respiratory condition.

Answer 2

It's also important to be aware that cats nearly always breathe through their nose, so if your cat is panting or breathing through their mouth, it's a sign they are either extremely stressed, or really struggling to breathe.
