Terry's currently asleep in his tray, he just went through really rapid movements. His body was shaking but his face/ears etc were all twitching. It looked like a cat/dog when they are dreaming while asleep but I just wanna check this is ok? He seems to have stopped now .
 
I experienced this with Spike recently, it's really odd and a little scary to watch.
I think they are just dreaming, as long as they're ok when they wake up it's nothing to worry about.
 
He looks like he has a particularly vivid dream!
 
Sweetie does this and another of my pigs Piggy Wiggin (RIP) used to do this also. Both of my rabbits do this.

It is scary to watch but they just seem to be sleeping and dreaming.
