Cats are famous for their long, and frequent, napping habits. While these long and deep naps are normal for our pets, some cat owners wonder if perhaps their extremely restful pet might perhaps have narcolepsy. However narcolepsy is a condition which has very distinct symptoms that includes more than frequent and long bouts of napping.
If your cat has been diagnosed with narcolepsy, treatments may or may not be recommended based on the number of episodes that your cat is suffering from. Medical treatments are generally not advised unless the episodes are interfering with the cat’s quality of life.
