And would you think I'm mad if I said yes, I do click to her? At first it was without the knowledge that it meant anything to a hamster. When she started to do it back I had to Google it, thinking something was wrong with her. Now obviously I can't do it exactly like her so she must think I'm a stupid ham that can't click properly!
I used to own rats and found all my rats staring at me while bruxing and boggling. I had been bruxing while I was anxious but didn't know I was doing it at the time.(my dentist confirmed that I'd been doing it for a while). It wasn't until later that I found out that it means 'im happy/content/relaxed" in rat language.
I suppose you could try and use it with your hamster(s). The way I see it it's just another language which allows 2 or more individuals to communicate and connect. |
I've never had rats. What is bruxing and boggling? Never heard the clicking either as not one of my quartett does it.
It is fascinating that your hamster clicks back at you.
