Killing cats (warning, could be offensive)

Okay. So I met this girl not even 2 weeks ago. I have started hanging out with her friends and what not. They are like I used to be so we get a long pretty well. Anyway, I had this dream where me and one of her roommates were in my room. I was gonna take the computer out to the living room to hook it up to the T.V so we'd have more room to watch a movie. So when we get into the living room I try to flick the lights on but they won't turn on. Suddenly there are these cats are in the closet scurrying around. I remember assuming that the cats had chewed through some wires and thats why the lights wouldn't work. So we start to get these cats out of the closet and start killing them. It was pretty brutal, swinging them by the tails and smashing their heads into the tables and what not. For some reason the lights were on out of nowhere in the dream. A couple more of her roommates showed up and started helping us. So by the end of it we are singing a musical while we are doing it. It came down to 2 cats left, I remember they were both female. One of her roommates was singing to let the cats go, something about them being domesticated. I remember singing this last line "If thats the kind of nation we live in, I'd rather be masturbatin'" Good god I hope I don't sound all screwed in the head. I absolutely love cats, I just don't know what this dream was supposed to mean. Thanks for any help on this, it was really wild and its what has got me into wanting to know more about my dreams.

In my opinion, it's really difficult to generalize with dream interpretations. I think that this dream could hold many different meanings for you, and it is hard to say what this means exactly when I don't know anything about you (other than this dream). Dream dictionary says: A dislike of someone or something. Conflict in your life. Killing a person or animal symbolizes repression of some aspect of yourself, some instinct or desire. Are you killing off, or do you need to slay some aspect of yourself........ It could also represent the desire for more control over your life. Also, dreaming of killing can represent a lot of pent up stress, and can also represent the feeling that you have no control over your life. There are so many different ways to read into this. I hope some of this helped!

That did help. I have quit smoking marijuana and drinking and am trying to take my life in another direction so it makes more sense now. Thanks.
