My exceptional cat Bennie died April 1, 2017. I had 8 cats until he died, all of them getting toward 20 years old, and the other 7 have died since. The thing is, Bennie came in my dreams and told me when each of his family members was about to die and follow him to the next place. Once he showed up with two of my living cats. They all 3 turned to run away from me together, but Bennie put out a paw and stopped the girl kit. He stood there, blocking her departure, and looked pointedly into my eyes, and then he and the other cat (who had just gotten a clean bill of health at his checkup a week earlier) ran away into the dark together. Four days later the cat he took with him died. The one he blocked got terribly sick and the vet said there was no hope but then she rallied. Some time later on, I dreamed he was outside the sliding glass door in the dark, looking in at me. I opened the door for him, and he came in and got the kitty who had rallied and shepherded her back through the door outside with him. Then, in the dream, without my closing the door it was suddenly magically closed, and Bennie and the other kit were standing out there in the dark, looking through the glass at me. She died right after the dream. Bennie did similar activities in my dreams before each ensuing pet death, until the last of them died this past August. Then? No more Bennie dreams. Which made me sad. He only came to tell me about impending deaths, I guess, was what I thought to myself. And he won't be coming anymore just to say hi to me. In November of this year, he came again. I was asleep and was watching a cat hop up onto the bed and begin walking up the mattress toward my face. As it got closer, I realized it was for no shit Bennie, with such a JOLT that my hand shot out to stroke him and I came awake with a start to find my hand raised and no cat there. Wow, I thought joyfully. That felt SO REAL. He came just to say hi to me! He's gonna stay in touch even now that his whole family is over on the other side with him! Hurray. Except he has repeated the visits with increasing frequency, and the overall sense of the dreams is NOT cheerful. People in my family tend to drop dead suddenly. One relative died while a woman was talking to him and she didn't even notice. Shocked her when she put out her hand to touch him and he fell over out of his chair. And at least three of my family members have dropped suddenly dead many years younger than me. So I started feeling a burden to get my affairs in order, assuming it could be that now I am going to die and that is why Bennie is showing up for me over and over. But I spoke to the social security administration yesterday to ask why I have never received confirmation that I signed up for medicare A (they insist on it when you turn 65). There has been a glitch, they told me, We have your soc number mixed up with the soc number of someone who is deceased. We're trying to straighten it out. I wonder if I should consider the govt error being the explanation for Bennie acting like I am about to die, or if I should consider the dreams plus the additional comedy of the govt thinking I'm dead just another omen of my impending departure. Should I cheer up? Or get to a lawyer and put my affairs in order. Maybe both. hmmmm......
