Hello and thank you for reaching out to Petco Pet Education Center, formerly Petcoach. When ferrets are deeply sleeping, they may take deep breaths and even twitch a little, like we would when we are dreaming. You can watch Thunder for a few minutes while he is sleeping and see if he shows any of these signs. I hope this is helpful!
