My fridge is mooing

I've checked. There is not a cow in there and there is also not also one of those bated biscuit tins that make animal noises at you.

My fridge is mooing. It doesn't matter how long it's been since I opened the door, it just mooing at me. I'm probably noticing it because we're isolating and I don't normally have to hide from the children in the kitchen during the day.
I showed my husband the miraculous mooing fridge and he had no suggestions or interest as to the cause of it...

So I leave it to the collective wisdom of Mumsnet. Has the spirit of a cow possessed my fridge? Is there some sort of cheeky fuckery going on? Or is it just plain broken?

Ominously, it has not made a sound whilst I've typed this after mooing all day.

I want a mooing fridge

Are you sure it's the fridge and not background moosic playing somewhere?

FitYeDaeinYeMadRadge · 31/01/2022 21:04

Very very jealous of the mooing fridge.

Bumply · 31/01/2022 21:07

Is it a fridge/freezer with automatic defrost?
Mine is and it makes some strange noises at times. The instructions had a long list of "reported noises which are of no concern, honest"

alfagirl73 · 31/01/2022 21:11

My fridge has a history of mooing. Also sounds like something from the exorcist at times! It's just doing its thing apparently!

Tiramysu · 31/01/2022 21:16

Like one of those cow cookie jars

MamaFirst · 31/01/2022 21:21

My fridge moo's too 🤣 No idea why, I go and slam the door shut and give it a gentle kick. It doesn't normally help though 🤦‍♀️

romany4 · 31/01/2022 21:24

My upright freezer moos too!
And sometimes squeals..
DH says it's something to do with the gas.....or something

Mine Moos all the time. I am so used to it but people who aren't who are around when it starts get scared 🤣 it only does it when it feels like it!

LaurieSchafferIsAllBitterNow · 31/01/2022 21:37

My mother's fridge used to make a groany noise, quite sinister and reminded me of a noise on soundtrack. The long low noise that's about 11 seconds in.

EmmaC78 · 31/01/2022 21:40

I had a mooing fridge in my old house. I miss it. I googled it at the time and have a vague recollection as well of it being Beko's that did it.

gamerchick · 31/01/2022 21:42

Move whatever packet is against the fan at the back.

gamerchick · 31/01/2022 21:43

In the freezer*

MrsMoastyToasty · 31/01/2022 21:43

Our freezer makes a whining dog type of sound when you leave the door open for too long.
It hasn't made that sound for a few days and there's a horrible smell emanating from it.
I think it's dying.

Hotelhelp · 31/01/2022 21:44

Reminds me you used to be able to press a button next to the milk in asda and it would moo

ponkydonkey · 31/01/2022 22:03

Mine makes A crowing noise... like it's freezing crows 😱😬👋🏻

RainbowToes · 31/01/2022 22:07

Our fridge is nicknamed Chewbacca because it makes odd noises...like Chewbacca.

mangoontoast · 31/01/2022 22:08

Mine cries. I usually just tell it everything will be OK and it stops.

TyneTeas · 31/01/2022 22:09

My old beko used moo, like it contained a small herd of chilly cows

mnahmnah · 31/01/2022 22:10

Mine moos and groans. It said so in the reviews, but I thought they were being fussy. Nope. It moos and groans loudly! Is yours a hotpoint?
