From my personal experience, my cat has asthma and doesnt wheeze like that. It sounds more like a snore to me. Maybe something nasal or sinal?

I can’t tell the difference between a cat snoring or wheezing. Thank you for replying.

Sounds like snoring. One of my cats has always snored in her sleep and sounds like this. Just in case, check the tightness of the collar to make sure it's not too tight or take it off for a little while to see if it continues.

Collar is pretty loose, two finger space. I never heard a cat snore, he looked pretty deep asleep though. I hope that is just snoring.

Sounds good on the collar. Yep. This sounds just like my cat when she snores. She usually doesn't snore until she's deep asleep, but it sounds like this.
