I have a cat and a kitten. When the kitten first arrived she thought everything was a toy. including my hose. With training she now sleeps with me. I did go through 2 hoses while training her.

I use swift fx. works great for side sleeping.

I use swift FX small. will trade my medium and large for small.

Thanks.

I have strap marks on my face that last for hours!

This is not fun.

I am new to this site, and I hope to find help and encouragement to be successful. I have used my CPAP off and on for two and a half years.
