If something is lodged in your cat's throat the first sign to look for is unusual coughing, hacking (particularly dry-hacking, as if a fur ball may be lodged), lack of breathing/labored breathing (wheezing) and / or excessive salivating to indicate a need to vomit or dislodge the item. If there is a human caregiver around, the pet most likely will seek their attention and attempt to communicate distress and anxiety over the situation. Cats are naturally curious, active predators and prefer to eat or play with items that may not be ideal for their digestive systems. Additionally, cats are unable to remove items lodged in their throats and mouth as they do not possess opposable thumbs (such as humans and pandas), therefore restricting their ability to grab things (such as strings, bones, fur balls) out of their throats and esophageal tracts. They will, however, attempt to let someone know, any way they can! If the object becomes lodged further in the esophageal / digestive tract, the symptoms can rapidly progress: the cat will no longer eat, drink or move from its normal spot and looks "odd" or uncomfortable; The cat does not engage in normal activities to which it has become accustomed; The nose may become dry, the hair dull and the eyes hazy and unresponsive; Should any of these symptoms occur the veterinarian must be consulted immediately to prevent worsening of the condition and to determine the causative factor.
A vet or Animal Doctor will be able to remove anything lodged in a dogs throat and should be able to give good advice on how to prevent the problem happening again

If there is something stuck in your throat that is causing a blockage in the esophagus, you will not be able to swallow other foods.
If the cat had something stuck in his throat he would unlikely be sleeping. He would be choking or trying to vomit it back out, or perhaps swallow it. In a more severe case, he might even be struggling for breath. If you believe your cat has something in his throat, it is highly recommended to take him to a vet immediately.
A true 'death rattle' is a type and quality of breathing sounds from the lungs. It signifies impending death. Therefore, no, a death rattle would not go on for weeks in humans or animals. If you hear a gurgling, rattling sound from a dog's throat, are you sure the dog doesn't have something--a toy, bone, etc.--stuck in its throat; you should take it to a vet.
