I've had dreams about my cats, foster/shelter cats, and cats I don't know.
The ones of cats in danger are usually my own or cats I know. I've also had
dreams about babies, but there's always something odd about them that I
don't realize at first.  One time (and this was way before I was pg) I gave
birth to a loaf of bread.  I didn't know it was a loaf of bread, and was
treating it just like a baby.

Aren't dreams strange?  I've got a website (not mine, just one I've
found) that tries to explain the imagery of dreams.  What it says about
dreaming of cats:

To see a cat in your dream, signifies much misfortune, treachery, and
bad luck.

*****However, for the cat lover, cats signifies an independent spirit,
feminine sexuality, creativity, and power. If the cat is aggressive,
then it suggests that you are having problems with the feminine aspect
of yourself.  If you see a cat with no tail, then it signifies a lost
of independence and lack of autonomy.

To dream that a cat is biting you, symbolizes the devouring female.
Perhaps you are taking and taking without giving. You may be expressing
some fear or frustration especially when something is not going as
planned.

To see a black cat in your dream, indicates that you are experiencing
some fear in using your psychic abilities and believing in your
intuition. You may erroneously associate the black cat with evil,
destruction, and bad luck. If you see a white cat, then it denotes
difficult times.

To dream that a cat killed a spider, suggests that you are expressing
your femininity in a seductive and cunning manner rather than in an
overtly and almost destructive way.

The website can be found at:

I generally go into the second column, since that one lets you look up
the imagery, and interpret for yourself.  The whole site is kind of
interesting to me anyway, but...

You probably cannot bear to think of your cats or of Jonathan being in that
situation. The rest is probably anxiety.

Is it a "cat dream" if you dream you went to a restaurant and all they had
on the menu was whole fried fish, heads and tails intact? <G>

I've had lots of dreams about my own -- some of them awful, but a lot
of them are just me trying to round them up because they've gotten out
somehow.  I've figured out that this recurring dream usually means I'm
feeling overwhelmed!  lol!

The weirdest cat dream I ever had was that the world was coming to an
end.  Basically, we were all going to die.  So what was I doing?
Running around and trying to rescue all the stray cats.  Go figure!
