are greys ticklish?

[siobha9]

I know that this is probably a stupid question but are Greys ticklish? When they laugh they dont mean to laugh do they... its just a sound they are imitating isnt it?

 

The reason I ask is that I was bathing Liath this evening, and she was giving out loads... and when I lifted her wing to wash her body she laughed. She laughed again when I did the other wing....

 

Its just coincidence isnt it?

That is so cute! I don't believe it's coincidence. They are so smart, and have a great sense of humor!!

I'm very impressed that you are able to lift her wings and bath her as you do. Wow!:woohoo:

I use the handheld shower thingy and I stand her in the bottom of the bath. I lift each wing and stretch it out so I can soak them properly, and then wet her back. She does love her bath, or shower as she calls it. But she has never laughed before.

 

I couldnt believe it!!

Rockelle (my former foster grey) had a great sense of humor and would laugh at us constantly...especially when she would trick my step mom into going to the microwave when it wasn't done yet

I think they definitely associate laughter with something funny, not certain if they are ticklish, they probably are just as other creatures in spots. :-)
