Sometimes it sounds almost like a mouse squeaking, and I know what you mean, but that is usually just a specific type of meow that varies from cat to cat. For instance, my cat squeaks when she wants food, and my friend's cat squeaks when it wants attention.

Rats will often squeak if they're under any type of stress or pain. They also might hiccup which sounds like squeaking. Hiccuping is normal; rats may get the hiccups just like humans.

Mice squeak for many different reasons. They may be excited, scared, mad, in pain, hungry, or thirsty. They squeak to express themselves, like talking.
