Do squirrels "yawn"? Is it normal to yawn, or does it indicate a problem?

never could catch Loki in a yawn it was very cute when she was a pinkie.

I heard yawning is contageous and ist true!
whenever I see my chippies yawn I start yawning :crazy :rotfl

Here are a few from my collection. For me even the pictures make me yawn.

Scooter stretches and yawns like this every time he gets out of bed, I could get 365+ yawns a year.....:crazy

:jump:jump

I am SO glad somebody asked this question.....!! :crazy

I'm glad the question was asked also. Sammy is so cute when he yawns and stretches his arm out. Love seeing the pictures too!!!
:thumbsup

I have my yawning squirrel trio on my wall. Scooby, Roxy and Baby. Couldn't be cuter!
