For years, every now and then I have dreams that a cat is hanging from my wrist with its teeth biting into my wrist. I try to shake the cat off but it stays there and it hurts really bad. When I try to shake the cat off of me, it bites even harder to stay griped onto my wrist.

I have never had cats. Some neighbors did when I was young. I remember them crawling on me sometimes and I never liked the claws digging into you as they crawled across you.

I had a dog growing up.

Any ideas?
