Sleeping Sounds

[inzeos]

I've noticed on several occasions that Cheecher's my chin makes a moderately loud noise while sleeping in her hidey hut. The noise as best as I can explain it almost sounds like several rapid squeaks from a dog toy. Is this the equivalent of a chinchilla talking in their sleep?

Sounds a bit like when chins bark. Trixie does that a lot. Consider it talking in her sleep. Here is a website that has several good wavs of sounds.

I always chalked it up to bad dreams. The barks are their alarm calls. Maybe they're dreaming about squeaky wheels or something.

Just wait till you get the somethings killing me squeal of death and you jump up in the middle of the night to go see what on earth is going on and all 4 chins stare at you like your crazy.

Thankfully our chin is currently living in the old master bedroom. Our new master bedroom is a good 20 or 30 feet away

Tubby barks in his sleep. When I go to check if something is wrong with him, I see him lying on his side sleeping away. He does this quite often & I've attributed it to bad dreams.
