I’ve always wondered if animals experience dreams in a way similar to humans. Do they have complex dreams with narratives, or is it more instinctual? If you have pets, have you ever noticed them “acting out” dreams while sleeping? Let’s discuss what science says about dreaming in animals and share any interesting experiences.

I’ve seen my dog twitching and making noises while sleeping, which makes me think she’s dreaming. It’s hard to say if it’s the same as human dreams, but it’s clear that animals do experience some form of dreaming.

Studies have shown that many animals, including mammals and birds, have REM sleep, which is associated with dreaming in humans. While we can’t be sure if their dreams are like ours, it’s likely they experience some form of dreaming.

I’ve read that animals’ dreams are likely more instinctual and less narrative than human dreams. For instance, dogs might dream about chasing or playing, reflecting their natural behaviors.

My cat often moves her paws and eyes during sleep, suggesting she might be dreaming. It’s fascinating to think about what her dreams might be like, given that animals have different experiences and sensory perceptions.
