greymom Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 Hi All, I haven't been here for some time now. Rita just started doing something new and strange. At night when she is covered she makes a quiet beeping sound like a telephone that is low on its battery. She does it on and off. The intervals between the beeps vary and she doesn't do it the whole night. Some beeps are lower, some a bit louder. Has anyone ever had this occur with their greys?

I have never experienced Rose doing that. After lights out, she never makes a sound. I'm not sure but maybe Rita is upset about something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greymom Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Forgive me. It is indeed not Rita. I have her in another room and the beeping continues. Just can't find the source but we will keep on searching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

judygram Posted July 17, 2010 Share Posted July 17, 2010 I think Lisa hit the nail on the head, check your smoke alarms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rierie Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Charlie does make beeping sounds on occasion like that.. the telephone recorder.. and we too have mistaken charlie when it was the battery in the carbon detector.... they are funny the way the pick up the sounds and confuse us...I have also went to answer the recorder and discovered it was charlie.

greymom Posted July 18, 2010 Author Share Posted July 18, 2010 I checked the smoke alarms and it is not them. I think it might be a cricket that got into the house. So I will just have to wait it out. Thank you all for your responses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
judygram Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Oh man if it is a cricket then good luck finding it for I have had the misfortune to have one in my bedroom and when you get up to look for it goes silent then the minute you climb back into bed it goes off again. This used to be a more common occurance when my daughter was still home and she had a tarantula and fed it crickets and one would get out of the enclosure before the spider had a chance to eat it and of course it would find its way to my bedroom, if I am asleep when it starts its racket I am ok but if I wake up and hear it then I can't go back to sleep as long as it does its "singing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
