Hi,

I wouldn't be too concerned about the noises, all of my fuzzies- at some point or another- have made sleepy noises. One even chuckles in his sleep from time to time! I think that as long as the snoring is soft they're fine. Too loud or too distressed sounding snoring could(don't quote me on this) be respiratory problems like with people. I look at it as another neat little quirk these fuzzy bundles of joy have.

> My second question is about my ferret Fiona. I've noticed that she makes quite a bit of noise in her sleep like little whimpers and other cute little noises. Sometimes they are in the pattern of snoring but she is making a whimpering noise instead of snoring. Is this normal and just a result of dreaming like with other animals?
