last night I dreamt cats, lions tigers panthers leopards in a house without walls. kitchen knives in case of attack, testing blades. you had been there but I couldn't find you. no one was protecting each other. what you said in the dream was felt when I woke but didn't help then with the cats around. eventually we found them all lying together in a great big bed. we pulled the covers over them quietly, knew we would be live a while longer if they didn't wake
