Sick funny piggy noise?

lisanjake · Sep 8, 2015

Well this morning when I got up I didn't try to record it but didn't realise I only took a picture

Anyway luna was making an odd 'clicking' sound. Only for about 15 seconds and I haven't heard it since... she's eating now anyway I'm not sure what to do I've heard her sort of wheeze a few times when sniffing my hand but that seems to have gone.
Any ideas. She's not done it since.
The only way I can describe it is say the letter K
but don't finish saying it, like say could, but only cou (like ku)

As you can imagine, being that it's a sound you are asking about, it would be difficult for us to tell you much about what it is without hearing it. If it happens again, try to get a video of it (sometimes it helps to see what they are doing at the time as well).

ahh I tried to quickly record it but stupidly took a picture thinking it was recording

ill keep a very close eye on her tonight and make sure I record it this time.

sounds like a sneeze. my chinchilla used to to sneeze like this. this, along with the wheezing, makes me think possible upper respiratory infection. start weighing them daily now and look out for weight-loss. if they stop eating and start losing weight, vet visit time.

Ahh maybe. I haven't heard her make the noise since.
They are nothing squeeking for food running laps and eating fine. U put the last of the foreging down on Sunday maybe that'd what done it
