My daughter's guinea pig rarely sleeps soundly but there have been a couple of times where we walk near her and she doesn't wake up right away like she normally does and we think she died! She's okay though.

This past weekend I was relaxing in the in-law's home while everyone else was off swimming at the pool at the clubhouse and their dog slept beside my chair. I noticed he started jerking his legs and his head and at first it looked as if he was running gently in a dream but then it got really spastic and I was worried he was having a seizure. I tried to wake him up and shook his body and tried lifting his head but nothing worked! So I just kept talking quietly to him and petting his side so either way he would be comforted. The family, when they returned, said it's been ages since he slept that soundly but he's never had seizures so it was just a wild dream. It scared me though that the dog would die the weekend of the wedding!

Does your pet sleep soundly?

House rabbits rarely sleep - but they rest soundly. They do that mid-day and mid-night, being most active around sun rise and sun set.

This is quite ideal for working families. They rest during the day when everyone's away..... and at night when all are asleep... but want to be active exactly when people are home and active.

cats generally sleep very lightly and the slightest noise wakes them

My cats sleep like cats, if you go near them, they notice. Now my dog can sleep very soundly and some of the things she does in her sleep is cute.

When my cat is dead to the world he really is dead to the world. Sometimes the slightest noise will wake him but sometimes he's just out cold. When he was a kitten he once fell asleep on my lap, on his back, with all four legs in the air. Certain noises are more likely to wake him than others, most specifically the sound of me opening the drawer where I keep the bag of cat treats.

Jungle means Forest, a relative of mine who bought it and gave to me. Normally we see two types of rabbits one is we keep as pet and the other lives in 'Forest. It is hard to keep as everytime I have to clean.
It plays everywhere, but what I believe is it will runaway if the doors are opened.

Yeah, I think it would run away. There are probably a lot of predators in the jungle waiting to get it though so it's got a safer life with you.
