Only when Im in a good relationship or when Im saying goodbye to someone/something I spent the entire dream getting to know. The most recent was an old talking lady cat I had found in a parking lot that was sick. She wouldve died without me but I took her home and was talking to her about random stuff. The dream ended when I brought her to a human hospital and the nurse took her back without saying a word and I remember seeing the cats face for the last time and while turning around to walk out the dream started to fade and I was up.
