Normal respiration in cats is 20 – 30 breaths per minute in a cat at rest. How to measure respiration in cats:One respiration is an inhalation & exhalation. To check the respiration rate count how many times the chest rises & falls in a 15 second period. Remember, one rise & fall = one respiration. Multiply the figure by 4 to get the total respiration rate per minute.Source: Cat World

15-30 breaths per minute. Respiration rate should be taken when your cat is at rest. To take your cat’s respiration rate, count how many times your cat inhales within a 15 second period and then multiply by 4.
