Perjo - Female CAG hatch Nov 2015
So I use Google animal sounds all the time to teach Perjo real animal sounds. I've had some good success, even using you tube, she can now mimic a dolphin call.

But I noticed that when I pull up the cat sound on Google and play it for her she shakes her head very quickly (a normal motion she makes that I have always assumed it was b/c of a slight irritation with her feathers on her head). But I noticed she seems to do it much more often when I play certain sounds for her, in particular the cat sound. She won't do it for the dog sound of a sheep sound, but 90% of the time when the cat sound is played.

I wondering if tehre is somthing to this sound that makes her wiggle her head like this.

Can some of the rest of you play this sound for you CAG and let me know what response they give you?

It would be interesting to see a pattern from a specific sound that is otherwise unassuming.

Just Google cat sound, the Google animal sound bar will come up.

OK I've done some more work on this, and the same sounds seem to get her to react the same way. I even started howling like a dog or wolf does, she does the same thing. It's virtually instantaneously with certain sounds. And it is every time, to the point of 48/50.

Just saying "ooooh" gets her to shake her head like this.

There has to be something to this in regards to frequency.
 
Like fingernails on a chalkboard to us :eek:
