Yes I think they do! My blue-fronted amazon parrot gets em. But I'm still not 100% sure whether he's simply imitating me!

Yes. I had a few dogs that occassionally got hiccups. I also saw on Monkey World that the chimps at Monkey World in Dorset got hiccups, some of them at least. I think in that way animals are no different from us. Whatever causes hiccups will presumably be exactly the same with animals in general.

I don't know about all animals but my dog does.
Its funny but I feel sorry for her at the same time.
When she does get them...... instead of one quick Hiccup "Hiccup","Hiccup"....... it's three. "Hiccup Hiccup Hiccup" "Hiccup Hiccup Hiccup"

certain, a useless ringer for people. Hiccups are brought about through "twitching" of the muscular tissues that administration the lungs. at the same time as they twitch it forces air in & out of the lungs. people & Animals with Lungs all have those muscular tissues, & ALL muscular tissues will twitch sometime or later.
