I dreamed that Hubs and I were sitting on the couch in our front room when a cougar came up to our front window, looking in and sniffing around. I watched this cougar while slightly fearing he would not only smell my precious pooch, but would break through the window to come get at her. I was relieved when the cat finally stepped away from the window and walked out of sight.
An hour later we were ready to retire to bed for the evening when I realized Mags probably needed to go out to go potty one more time. I asked Hubs to go outside with me while Maggie was out there so that if the cougar came back he could fight it off. He agreed, so I put Maggie's coat on and opened the back door to let her out. Within seconds she had spotted the cougar a few yards down (because our fences had all magically disappeared) and went tearing after him. Of course, once the cougar caught sight of Mags, he was running after her to make her his tasty dinner.
As with all nightmares, I could not scream out to my dog to call her back. All I could do was watch in horror as the cougar bore down on my baby dog. Before he had the chance to pounce on her, I woke up, heart pouding and ears ringing in fear. I sat there for the longest time trying to reassure myself that my pooch was fine and sleeping snuggly just outside my bedroom door. It took me forever to allow myself to fall back asleep for fear the nightmare would continue.
Last night was the first night in about a month and a half that I didn't take a sleeping pill. Coincidence?

I wonder if you will find the meaning for this one on the dreams website. Isn't it always such a relief when you realise that it had all just been a very horrid dream and you are really just safely tucked up in bed all safe and sound. x
