My cat has a habit of sitting on her ass when looking outside the window. One of her ancestors was a Scottish Fold, so she can sit like this, and it's rather unnatural, I think.
I noticed that whenever she does this, and even if I take her into my arms in a similar way, she starts to make (infrequent) snuffling noises, as if she finds it harder to breath. She also throws up sometimes (once a couple of weeks), and today I noticed that while sitting on her ass she made a motion to throw up but didn't. So I drew a conclusion that it's probably due to this unnatural sitting that she throws up sometimes after eating.
But I don't know how to prevent her from assuming this position! Short of barring window access to her, but that's too cruel, the quality of her life would rapidly deteriorate. She doesn't sit like this anywhere else, only when looking outside.
P.S. Actually she sometimes make such noises in other positions, as well Like her nose is full and she sniffles.
