"I thought it was a nice dream, but the cat displayed was not my cat. My cat hated to be held for more than a minute. She would never easily go outside, much less into a car. And she seemed much more lovable to be around." Lance Turk

I guess I have to give a little bit of background info for this one. I used to have a cat for about 16 years. Two summers ago, we had to put her to sleep because she got really sick in her old age.

This afternoon I had a dream that I was still in high school and for some reason I wanted to bring my cat to school. I spent a while holding her in my arms and trying to get her into my car. 

She was relatively calm and just seemed to be content to be around me. I eventually put her in the car and was trying to close the door while making sure that she stayed in the car. She was an indoor cat so we never allowed her to go outside.

I thought to myself that she should be a bit more nervous due to the fact that she never went into a car unless she was going to the vet. But she seemed pleasant and a little curious about where I was taking her.

That's when I woke up to the sounds of my sister starting up the computer.
