Ok I have listened to the records of chinchilla sounds but I can't find one that sounds like MeeKeeMee. He has been doing it for me since we got him. He stopped when we had the surgery but now he does it again. When ever I am at the cage he does this real soft chirping sound for me . I say its singing LOL for some reason I like the idea of animals singing to me. Its so soft that if you weren't right there you would not even know he was making that sound.

Does anyone have a chin that does this or know what it means?

[VenusTheChin]

Does it sound like a soft "peep peep?"

I had a chin who would make this noise. He would do it during playtime. I think of it as a happy noise. Neither one of my girls make this noise.

[Deeliteful]

Well sure I guess it could be a peep peep sound . But he does it over and over .

[VenusTheChin]

Yup is continues, forgot to add that. It is more like peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep!

My newest girl Star does the same sound when the boys greet her from between the cages..Stew puts his nose to the wire and she puts hers up and they make the same sound...perhaps its a happy sound??

Yup is continues, forgot to add that. It is more like peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep peep! 

Thats it ... thats the sound . You got it perfectly  maybe it is a happy sound . I sure hope so . He is all in my face with it now . Sniffing my eye balls . He loves that for some reason.

   If it is what I think it is, it sounds like a greeting ... a happy greeting ... "glad you are here" sound to me.  I have many that do that.  They usually sniff and seem to want to be scratched when mine do it.

Chong does it too. I thought it was a 'I can see the ladies and I want to be with them' noise. If you get my meaning.
He has done it to me but he hates being tickled or picked up. I don't know what to do with him lol, he wants attention but doesn't like it. He only likes to play tug of war with me.

[Deeliteful]

I am going to try and get a recording of him doing this . Then I will post it . Its so cute.

Yes he seems to want attention when he starts it up ... a good chest rub usually. SIlly fella.

Ok you will have to turn your volume up pretty loud . I got it as best I could.

[VenusTheChin]

Yup that is it.    My girls make this noise in shorter succession to let the other know where they are or to find the other.

I can't seem to get that opened, PC glitches, but here's a link to one of my sounds I guess this is what your talking about.
