A *weird* cat dream

I've had unusual dreams before, but one I had a couple of weeks ago
really takes the prize. It was weird enough that I still remember it
clearly.

In the dream Nancy and I were sitting on our back patio (at a house MUCH
nicer than our current one). I had Amelia sitting on my lap and Nancy
had Cleopatra in her lap. Tabitha and Samuel were chasing each other
around the swimming pool (I did mention that the house in the dream was
MUCH nicer than our, right?) Harri was out beyond the pool playing
beside a stream, trying to catch a fish. She succeeded and landed a
small fish, then played with it for a bit. Shortly after landing the
fish, though, she apparently wondered if it was ok for her to be playing
with the fish.

She ran towards Nancy and me. When she got to the pool instead of
running around it she jumped in. She swam *underwater*, as gracefully as
an otter, to the end of the pool nearest us then ran up and meowed as if
asking if it was ok to catch fish and play with them. Nancy and I
praised her for her hunting skills and told her what a good girl she
was. She felt better then, and turned and jumped back into the pool,
swam otter-like to the far end, climbed out and resumed playing with her
fish.

Now what could that dream be trying to tell me?

Uh, keep Harri away from water? But feed her fish! G

Actually, I'm doing both of those! Harri has quite a taste for tuna, so
she gets a can of it a day. And the times I splurge and get myself
salmon for dinner I always bring her some, and she loves it.

Be careful with too much fish for Harri. It can be not a good thing for
kitties, causing them to not absorb Vitamin E efficiently.

IMHO -- the cats are your family. Harri respects your opinion.

I didn't know that! Thanks for the pointer.

I didn't know it for a long time either!

I don't know, but it seemed to be quite a nice one.
Unlike my cat dream last night. I dreamt that Kitty FC had got run over and
someone brought her into the house. She was alive. I said "Oh, her tail
has been cut off." and they said, no, it hasn't, it's just dangling behind
her. Knowing even in my dreams how serious this can be I woke up
immediately. I was so relieved to wake up. It was 4 a.m. Just to make
sure I went downstairs to check my tuxedo girl, who was fast asleep with an
intact tail. "Eh?" she said "What time of night do you call this?"
Tiptoed back upstairs. Whew.

I frequently dream about my cats. The latest one" I dreamed that I was
in bed with several pillows under my head and my cat was in my arms. I
awakened to find my cat in my arms. See -- dreams do come true!
