Eating in his sleep

Well, I was sitting here, mylotting, and thinking of bed when I heard a funny sound.
I looked over to where Taj was sleeping and he was lapping in his sleep. He lapped for a while, then seemed to chew a bit then lapped some more.
I wonder if he was dreaming of his baby food treat I haven't fed him?

I was just thinking about how I used to wake up with food in my bed from sleepwalking and eating... I wonder if pets do that too.

Hi ElicBxn, 
That is so adorable. Our Anna Belle sometimes sleeps with a little bit of her tongue sticking out. Just too cute! She also does a bit of 'talking' in her sleep at times.

That's funny. I know my dogs will whimper occasionally while they sleep, like they are dreaming. I have even heard of people doing odd things while sleep walking. Hum...

That is so funny... guess he misses his teeth, after all.
I thought it was odd when my Harmony moaned in her sleep the other night. Don't know what she was dreaming about, and maybe I don't want to know, either...

I think that he was in REM sleep and dreaming like when they run in their sleep. I also think it is instinct in them like sucking is in humans. When a human has a stroke and is in a coma sometimes they will revert back to sucking like a baby does. It does not mean they are coming out of their coma it just is something that is instinct in us.

Oh, yeah, he was dreaming. I've seen many a cat twitch and the like, it was just funny to hear that lapping sound coming from him.
Yeah, I know about REM sleep - seems that while I don't remember most of my dreams, that after my car accident I cried out in my sleep for some time - like over a year...

do u heated for him to make it warm or just give it out of the jar? he can probably lick it from his bowl on his own.

We used to have a cat who dreamed and sometimes he talked in his sleep.
