Most often, cats in a dream represent feminine sexual energy due the slinky sexy nature of a cat, which is why we often refer to a sexy woman as a “sex kitten,” not to mention that the slang for female genitalia is a cat reference i.e. pussy. So when a cat appears in your dream, if you are a woman, it may be connected to your current sexual energy and desires or could even be a reference to your reproductive health.

If you are a man dreaming of a cat, the cat may represent a woman in your life.

A sick, starving or neglected cat can mean you are having a dry spell in the intimacy department.

An angry cat or a cat biting you can mean you are mad at yourself.

Cats can also symbolize your need for balance and independence or perhaps even represent someone close to you that exhibits aloofness or “cattiness,” or any other qualities you associate with a cat.

A predatory cat is you ability to protect your best interests as well as go out on the hunt and get what you want in life.
