To compare the proportional relationship of the number of hours the cat and baby sleep each day, we need to find the average number of hours each of them sleep per day.

The cat slept a total of 18 * 7 = <<18*7=126>>126 hours for the week.
So, the cat slept an average of 126 / 7 = <<126/7=18>>18 hours per day.

On the other hand, the baby slept a total of 91 hours for the week.
So, the baby slept an average of 91 / 7 = <<91/7=13>>13 hours per day.

Therefore, the proportional relationship of the number of hours the cat and baby sleep each day is 18:13.
