What do cats dream about
I'm watching Abbott and he's snoozing on his back right in front of the TV. That's him pretty much all day until nighttime when he gets up and moves into my bedroom and finds his spot on the bed.

So as I watch Abbott sleeping I wonder - what the hell do cats dream about?

11. Gee, my cats just lie there.
They'll occassionally roll over, though. I think they dream like I do (not too often).

What's a cat's nightmare like?

13. depends on the kind of cat...
I forget we are talking about housecats...I have been hanging around tigers and mountain lions lately...but housecats have nightmares about dogs and other various enemies

4. Especially persian cats. I am pretty sure when my cat sleeps,
he has dreams about sleeping. Well, maybe a little food too.

5. Big fat juicy squirrels
At least that's what Caesar says. Not that he'd know what to do with one or anything. :D

6. And dogs too for that matter
My dog makes the most blissed out sounds when she's sleeping, and she smiles this cheesy grin. It makes me wonder what she does when I'm not home. :shrug:

My cats always seem to have action dreams. Whiskers twitching and their little paws wiggle.

17. Running across my keyboard and deleting the five pages
I have just spent forever writing. I suspect that's one of them. Finally being able to take down one of the deer in the back yard is probably another one.

I expect, however, that their main dream is me being their slave and doing everything they want.... of, wait... that one has come true.

18. "moves into my bedroom and finds his spot on the bed"
You too huh? One day I think my wife and I will come home and the locks will be changed. For now the cats are being kind enough to let us live there in "their house" but as many as three cats try to push us out of bed every night.
