Before I was dx'd, I got so sick and dehydrated one time that I started having irregular heartbeats in the night. My daughter's kitty crawled up on the sofa with me, something she'd never done, and scooted up as close to my chest as she could get, lay down and started her deep purring. I finally went into the hospital after that. She never did that again. I think it was the heart thing as it was really out of whack.
My daughter has a Himalayan now that serves as her "therapy cat" in that she will either try to wake her up or come wake me up when her "mommy" is having trouble breathing in her sleep (asthma).
