A Strange Dream

I don't think that this is really a ghost story, but I saw a story on here about a dream and thought about this dream I had once. I thought that I would submit it here for others to think about. This happened about 2 years ago. I was living in a house in the Salt Lake City area. My husband was working nights at time and didn't get home until around 8am. I have to be at work by 730am. This means that I have to be up by 6:50am if I am going to get my daughter to day care and get to work on time. I have this cat named Basti. At the time I had had him for maybe 4 months. This is how the dream went...

My daughter was holding my cat in her arms. The cat looked at me and said "Tell her to put me down. Please." I told Jo to put the cat down. She did and he said "Thank you." then stood there for a min. "washing" himself. He stopped in mid lick and looked at me and said "Hey Yvonne you need to wake up." I said "What?" Basti said "Yvonne you need to wake up!" Then began "washing" himself again. I woke up a slipt second later. I looked down at my alarm clock (it sat on the floor by my bed). There was Basti sitting right beside my alarm clock staring right my forehead. I looked at the time and watched it change to 6:50am! (see above time) I looked back at Basti and he starting "washing" himself. I got up and got to work right on time with about 30 seconds to spare.

It was a good thing that I was not late. My boss was in a bad mood and was yelling at everyone for anything. Two people got into trouble for things that he normally would have let slide. Like being a few minutes late. I thought that it was pretty cool. I saved Basti from being put down at the animal shelter because no one wanted him. He was sick and no one wanted to spent the money on a sick cat. I adopted him and got him some meds to make him all better. I think that he knows that and maybe felt he needed to repay me. What do you think?
