      Question about shared dreaming?

      I've read about people visiting other peoples dreams etc. But what i want to know is if you can visit animals dreams? For instance at night when your dog is dreaming could you possible become lucid and visit his/her dream?

      IF shared dreaming is real, then sure, why not? Would webe disturbed to find out what our dog dreams about? Maybe. Our cat? Hell yes!

      Probably, but it would be a lot harder because you can't tell your dog to try to find you in a dream. And there'd be no way to know if it was really a shared dream with your dog or just a dream about your dog.

      I agree, i still would love to see what they dream about, and if every living creature dreams then imagine a sharks dream or a grasshoppers dream?

      I imagine at some point an animal is to simple to really dream. I assume all mammals dream, but who can even guess about insects.

      I often ask my cat's what they dream about, but they never tell . I would love to know though, just in case. If you know what I mean. No, but seriosly, that would be an awesome bonding experience. I really wish I could talk to my cats, so I know what they want and stuff like that.

      You might be able to enter your pets' dreams, but you'll have a very difficult time understanding what they are dreaming. As far as we know, animals like dogs and cats don't think like humans; they don't use metaphor to communicate (to themselves or others) as we do, so their dreams will completely lack images that make sense to you. In other words, you might be able to get in, if shared dreaming is possible, but you'd likely learn nothing.

      It would be very hard to interpret the colour as well do to some animals being colour-blind
