Animal Abuse and Domestic Distrubance

I want to start off by giving my readers a brief overview of the relationship I have with my mother. We had a horrible falling out around the time I turned 15 that resulted in me being sent away for a week, grounded for a month, and eventually moving out. We did not speak much for about two years and just recently have started talking on a regular basis.

The dream/nightmare I had last night was random and completely odd... Just like most of the other night visions I get while sleeping. It started off with me being in our horse pasture out at my mothers current residence. I am not sure what I was doing out there but started to walk back into the house as soon as I heard my sister (who was my cousin in the dream?!) yell at me. From what I remember the next scene was me in my bedroom at the time I lived there staring out the front window at my cousin (older sister) walking down the driveway screaming at the top of her lungs about something. I remember her telling me to go downstairs, so I did.

Downstairs I saw a bunch of empty bird cages which were the cages our pet birds had always been in and looked as if they had completely disappeared since there was still food and water in them. I headed up to the garage where I found another cage with two very sickly birds in it. They had no food or water so I gave them some new food and filled their dishes with clean water. One bird only had half its' feathers left and the other looked dull and grey in color. I remember being so angry about the condition of the birds I ran inside and started to yell at my mother and cousin. They told me they had given away my bird along with most of the others for some reason I cannot recall. The fighting was so bad I ended up grabbing the birds and started to run away from the house. This is where I woke up...

Even though it wasn't an exactly scary dream per say, I was shaken up due to the fact I do not want to have another falling out with my mother. I know my bird is still safe and well taken care of but in the back of my mind I felt something was terribly wrong. It was just a weird coincidence that I was thinking about buying another cockatiel yesterday and dreamed about losing my current one "Neo".
