Strange Sucking/clicking Sound.

[Robynnlouu]

hi guys!

So this morning my piggy wheezy made a very odd sound. Its hard to describe but its almost like a clucking/sucking sound. He done it three times in roughly 5 mins and it was like a short burst only a second long, if that but quite loud.

I may be a little paranoid as one of my piggies had to be put down a couple of months ago due to a birth defect that was never picked up but nevertheless I'm on edge.

Has anyone had this before or know what the sound means?!

Please take a deep breath and calm down!

It may be a slightly blocked nose? I would not worry unless this persists for several hours and is getting worse instead of better. See a vet if it is something stuck in the mouth or if the breathing deteriorates very quickly.

Most likely it is going away on its own once your piggy has sneezed.

We do not have a video uploading facility, as it is too expensive for a forum that is sustained by member donations. You have to upload ot elsewhere on a public setting and then parse the link into your post.

But I would not worry; clicking breathing is usually a temporary thing and most often caused by sightly stuffy nose when a bit of day dust or pollen gets into it.
