Perhaps your higher self or guidance let you know that your cat is hungry.

One morning while I lay in bed awake I experienced myself almost get in an automobile accident.  Because of this I decided to not use the fast lane when I drove to work that morning, and right where I experienced an accident non-physically, right before my eyes I saw a three car pile up take place in the fast lane.  I could see that it was going to happen just before it happened. If I would've driven in the fast lane like I usally do, I might've been a part of the accident.

The reason the accident took place is because the traffic came to a sudden halt, and one driver didn't notice this until the very last moment.

While taking a break today I looked at my dream notes from last night, and found that I also had a dream about cats.

I was in a house, on the floor, with a couple of cats and a stuffed animal cat. I did something that made the stuffed animal cat squirm, and it bothered one of the other cats, until I showed the troubled cat that the squirming cat was just a stuffed animal.
