No, literally, a dream.

One night, I suddenly woke and sat in bed wondering - What did I just see? We have never had pets and never even planned on getting one.

Dreams come from our subconscious , does that mean I had always had it at the back of my mind and never really paid attention to? Or maybe just perks of moving to Muscat?

So in my dream, I was awaken by sudden squeaky, animalistic screams. I didn't know what it was. But I doubted it might be a cat. I got down from the bed, out of my room and slowly walked towards the door of the house.. as I went nearer I understood it wasn't one cat but more. How many....idk.

I opened the door slowly, expecting the unexpected........

And there, I saw about thirty cats, different breeds, colors, shades, ages and sizes, all over the little place around our doorstep. As soon as I opened the door, they all turned their heads to see me. The ones who were fighting stopped at once. They looked at me as if waiting for me to say something.... as if I speak their language...... as if I was one of their kind!

I was stupefied and stood their frozen for a while. I didn't know what to do. How did so many cats come inside the boundary? And why? Why are they all staring at me?

One them said 'Meaw' in a very curious manner....... and I understood they were in the same boat. They had no idea how and why they turned up here.

How did I get that from a 'meaw'?
