She's super friendly and loves out of cage time. She's eating, drinking, active, and has no signs of stress or illness at all. Tonight I got her out of her cage a few times, and on the last time I noticed that she was being really vocal. She wasn't hissing, chirping or squeaking, but she was making a very quiet cooing sound, almost like a bird twittering / tweeting? But really quiet. I could only hear it when I put her to my ear. She was climbing over me, her ears were up and she had the same expression she always does when she's exploring.

I know that hamster sounds are super important.
I read into hamster respiritory sounds and it's nothing like those either (no clicking / sneezing or wheezing). There's not much info on a sound like this so I thought I'd ask you guys. Should I be concerned at all or is this simply a happy and content sound? She was making it the whole time she was out, so all I can do is check tomorrow and see if she continues to do it.

Thanks so much for your help!
