Do rats...

sleep with their eyes open?

Its just mine do,I think, because whenever they are curled up and looking like they are sleeping, they have their eyes open, and I don't know whether that is normal or not.

Re: Do rats...

Mine sleep with their eyes shut, but I'm sure I've heard that some type of animal does sleep with it's eyes open but I can't remember if it's a rat or not.

Re: Do rats...

Hahha, they sleep with their eyes shut! I think they may have just been open because you were near them

Re: Do rats...

My dominant male rat will snooze with his eyes partially open sometimes....keeping a look out for predators perhaps?

Re: Do rats...

TDM - your animals are just strange My mice and Theo only do it occasionally. Theo opens his and rolls them around. Rather freaky to watch.
