Now that you said this happened in the middle of the night, I think it may be allergies or CT related.

There was one day last year that Roxy kept honking and gagging, pretty much all day long. She has both allergies and mild CT. I tried to do everything to get her to stop. But she kept carrying on, she looked like a snake with the gagging and the little tongue in and out, in and out. This went on through the night too. Honking, gagging, throat pulsing, sleep and then again...honking, gagging, throat pulsing and then to sleep - every 1/2 hour this cycle would happen. Finally the next day was Saturday, I decided to shave down her belly to cool her down and I gave her a bath and let the bathroom steam up, we stayed in there for a very long time, but it opened her up completely. This never happened that bad again.

Also, weight has a lot to do with it. Is he over weight at all?
