last night's dream

I was standing on a sidewalk holding a cat. A man who was smoking a cigarette approached me.

Man: I'm going to have to kill that cat.

Me: Um... no. You can't.

Man: Yep. I'm killing it.

Me: I won't let you!

Man: Definitely killing the cat.

I run off, tightly holding the cat while yelling about how I won't let him kill it.
