#4 As a side note, in traditional Oriental acupuncture diagnosis, much is made of the voice of the patient as a diagnostic tool. I believe they list about four or five different voices, and what underlying conditions they might suggest.

One of these is a "sighing" voice, what in people is like "whew", punctuating their normal speech. This may also affect rats the same way, if they share similar food, and they have too much or too little of something.
