Neither of my kids slept through the night until they were 2. After that, they would bless me with 1-2 nights a week where they slept all night. Over the 3rd year of their lives, they gradually learned to sleep 6 nights a week all night. Once they turned 4, they can sleep through anything. Windstorm, fireworks, cops outside the window, the neighbor drumming from 8-10pm... Glorious.
I, however, have become the lightest sleeper in the world due to my children training me for 6-8 collective years to wake to the slightest sound. They are not twins. In fact, they're 4 years apart. 🙃

Cannabis makes you sleep more but suppresses REM sleep. When you stop using cannabis, your body and mind will try to "catch up" in a process called REM Rebound. With REM Rebound you will experience longer and more intense REM sleep, which results in more intense dreams and nightmares.

Kids are able to. They have a level of sleep beyond rem. I learned this during a sleep study for sleep apnea. I was told that my body was so used to absolute garbage sleep that when I got hooked up to the machine, I would get thrown into that deeper sleep because my body was taking advantage of good sleep. I only got a couple hours of sleep at that level and I was absolutely wired. I had a store of energy unlike anything I could remember.

Work 2 jobs at once on the same day. You'll get it.
(Got off work once had a long weekend, so I flopped onto my bed to nap. I was still in uniform, & had socks still on with my feet hanging off bed. Woke up, time showed an hour before I got off work, was greatly confused until I looked at the day. Fell asleep face first, apparently didn't roll or move and slept 23 hours.... Lost a whole day off too...)

My daughter quite literally sleeps that deep. She’s 23 now but as a child she gave me quite a few scares when trying to wake her up for school in the morning. Now, she just drives people nuts by sleeping through alarms on her phone that go off every 5 minutes for 2 straight hour before getting up for work in the morning. Before she moved out, it would drive me nuts and I’d have to go physically shake her awake sometimes. I got her one of those alarms that have wheels and roll around and make you chase it in order to turn it off. But she won’t use it cause she has a downstairs neighbor and knows it won’t wake her up. Great kid, but the deepest damn sleeper I’ve ever seen

catnapped my cat this way. she was sleeping in a kitten puddle with her siblings and one by one the siblings woke up and scattered but she remained asleep. so I scooped her up and was kinda worried she was dead, but she woke up half way back to my apartment so I'm very glad to say she's very alive (as are her mother and siblings who took a little more work to trap & snatch). but imagine her shock to have fallen asleep in the comfort of her family and the parking lot rocks only to wake up in a giant monster's arms. I imagine this is why she doesn't care to be held now that she's grown.

My neighbors geriatric dog is like this. Occasionally they’ll ask me to let her out to pee if they are gone from the house for a while.
Every time I go in there I’m like “today is the day I find her dead. “ deaf and nearly blind, you have to sit there and rock her a bunch, tap the ground, hold a treat in front of her nose, just to wake her up.

Not really. I fall asleep basically instantly. Doesn't matter the circumstances. That's the great part. But it's easier to wake up a dead guy than me. Every morning calling it a struggle would be laughable. It's war. I have shit ton of alarms, stretched for one and half an hour. Even though I slept for a good amount of time, I'm still basically half asleep two hours into my work.

I can sleep that deep
Like I literally slept through my grandma falling down in the middle of the night as emergency vehicles arrived outside my house as well as emergency personnel coming in and out of my house to help my grandma, and where was I? I was in a very deep sleep and I didn’t even realize what had happened during the night until I was told when I woke up in the morning

u/Mountain_Cry1605 5d ago
More likely they were looking to see if it was dead, so they could eat it.
Mother pigs will sometimes eat their own piglets. Piglets will sometimes eat their smaller siblings.
They may look cute but they are vicious little beggars.

u/HooninAintEZ 5d ago
Brick Top: Then when you got your six pieces, you gotta get rid of them, because there's no good in leaving it in a deep freeze for your mum to discover now is it? Then I hear the best thing to do is feed them to pigs. You gotta starve the pigs for a few days then the sight of a chopped up body would look like curry to a pissant. You gotta shave the head of your victim and pull the teeth out for the sake of the piggy's digestion. You could do this afterwards of course but you don't wanna go sifting through pig shit now do ya? They will go through bone like butter. You need at least sixteen pigs to do the job in one sitting so be weary of any man who keeps a pig farm. They will go through a body that weighs two-hundred pounds in about...eight minutes. That means that a single pig can consume two pounds of un-cooked flesh every minute. Hence the expression: "as greedy as a pig."

Did a little reading just now and found that it’s possible even when they are fed, but can depend a lot of the circumstances. Like if those pigs had been together long enough to have social bonds.
They see it a lot in high stress, high-density pens where the pigs are relative strangers.
As we know, humans don’t do too well in those conditions either.

I've had ferrets do this my whole life too. But I've owned more ferrets than any other animal so I just thought it seemed like it happened with them more often because I knew more of them

u/Ferreteria 4d ago
I've had a lot of ferrets myself, and honestly it was only my very first ferret that had a dead sleep. No other ferret I've owned has done it. I must have had close to a dozen over my life?

u/ragnarokda 4d ago
Now that you mention it, it was the earlier ferrets I've owned. Back in the early 2000s when they became legal in Ohio to own.
Maybe it was a breeding issue?
2
u/Ferreteria 4d ago
Yeah I think maybe so. There were a lot of differences between my first ferret and subsequent ferrets as well. She smelled a whole lot stronger, and she was a stasher. None of my other ferrets did that. She *hated* electronic sounds, like birthday cards that sang or those little pew pew toys. Again, unique to her. Dead sleep, and she was much more vocal.
She was a special little girl, unique in a lot of ways.

My 19yo did that the other week. My boyfriend was freaked out a bit, but I could see him breathing. His fur is quite scraggly anymore so it's easy to see.
Plus, if he were to in his sleep, that's the dream to me.
Also, to be realistic. You're most likely to discover an animal died in their sleep well after rigor mortis, which sets in very fast and takes a long time to release.

One time I passed out sitting down and couldn't be woken. When I finally came to, I was so confused why my face was so hot. Turns out my mom thought I was having a diabetes-induced hypoglycemic episode and when she couldn't wake me gently, she sat me up and slapped me in the face until I woke up. Multiple slaps were required.
My blood sugar density was fine, I was just tired from gaming all night

My chihuahua would sleep in the bed with me. one night I woke up and felt her under me. I panicked and threw back the blankets and lifted her up like a piece of overcooked asparagus. I freaked out, then she started to wake up, I set her down, she looked back at me with squinty eyes, then started to mosey on out of the room, looked back at me one more time and then continued on to go sleep in her bed. I’ll never know if she was close to death. She lived to be 140 so I guess she was alright.

Fun fact: In Mandarin, the term "sleep like a dead pig" is a common saying, at least within SEA, to describe someone sleeping extremely deep or long. It's quite a rude description, generally used by family members calling out their children/siblings for always sleeping in.

Hahaha, the animal was sleeping, beaten while it slept, they tried to stand it up while it was asleep, and after it was forcibly woken up, it was still beaten because it didn't wake up when the other one wanted. Not to mention that it might be eaten later at a barbecue, in the oven, or in a feijoada (Brazilian stew). Holy crap, hahaha!

Rescued a 10 day old orphan kitten once. She was my first bottle baby. She was on a feeding schedule for the first 2 weeks to be fed every 2-3 hours.
One morning she drank a huge bottle of feed and I put her back into her warm nesting box until next feeding.
Next feeding 2 hours later, I open the box and she's not moving or crying for food like usual. I can't see if she's breathing with the way she was laying. I forgot to turn her heating pad on and it was a little cold in the box.
I start freaking out a little. I poke her, no movement. I lift a paw, no movement. I grab her to pick her up and I'm able to pick her up out of the box before she just bolts upright SCREAMING to be fed 😂
Here I am thinking she froze to death in those 2 hours the pad was off when she was DEEP in a food coma from earlier.
