What is the meaning of seeing kittens and puppies in dreams and caring so much about their survival?
It is interesting it is both kittens and puppies. Usually kittens and puppies are symbolic of emotional forces, our reaction to seeing kittens and puppies. In the dream you are concerned, and the caring aspect comes up. In your question the issue seems to be rooted in why care so much?I would suggest the dream is pointing out emotional forces, and that there is a disconnect of some sort, probably your mental outlook. You react by caring about something, but part of you isn’t comfortable with the strength of the reaction, or you are trying to detach from something. Maybe something is bring up feelings and bringing out a nurturing role and your not comfortable with that.

Why do animals sit in silence as they are eaten alive and not scream in pain and agony?
Little time ago, a simmilar doubt came to me. On tv documentaries, we see how the lion catch its prey, and the next scene it’s already opened up and all the lions are eating off him. But I also saw videos of lions jumping over buffalos (maybe gnus) and not hurting them with their claws nor their teeth so… how do they actually eat them? So I search for a while…You just have to see any video of “xxx” animal eating “yyy” animal alive and you will get it. With the lions you can get, for example, four lions that have “taken down” a buffalo. One is holding its neck for choking it. Another one is holding to one of its leg so the belly is exposed. The third one is eating any “meat” avalaible (tail, genitals, anus…) and the fourth one is trying to open its belly by biting and licking. This scene can go on for more than half an hour, and probably they have been an entire hour with this isolated buffalo until they could take it down with minimal risk.So you have an exausted animal, probably even half unconscious, being choke and eaten alive. If the buffalo is lucky, he will get suffocated before they start eating him but if not… you can see it light as day in the face of this animal… have you ever seen what a face looks like when all its muscles are in tension from sheer pain? Well… you WILL see that on their faces. For me, it’s clear that they don’t scream because they don’t have the ability to do so. After they start getting out internal organs and eating their prey from the inside, this prey’s face relaxes and you can see resignation on them, like “Will you kill me already, please?”To sum up, nature is brutal. In documentaries you will see the least violent part of it.
Why does my dog quiver violently whenever he's sleeping at night?
For the same reason you do, but where most of our experiential lives happen in our heads, dogs are more kinesthetic, so when they dream of chasing that cat, they act it out, when we dream of chasing that flying squirrel, we don't flap our arms wildly in bed. At least most of us. My dog Lydia never had a bad day in her life (she is in my profile picture); rescued at five weeks from life on the street, she was well fed, well trained and well loved. As a positive reinforcement trainer, she never knew what a "bad dog" was. Consequently, she would dream with quivering eyes and sometimes make nursing movements with her mouth or wag her tail in slumber.My current dog Zipper, has "dogmares". He quivers, his legs twitch, he whimpers and growls. A curled lip and tremble denote a "bad dream". I quietly say his name and talk to him, saying: "I'm here, good boy." Then I stroke him and he calms. This is so gratifying to know that, as bad as his life was before I rescued him, I am the calm and loving end for him.Having said all that, if your dog's twitchy slumber seems more thrashy, your "sleeping" dog could be having a siezure. It looks just like sleep, but more physical. If you suspect this, get your dog to the vet. There are medications for treatment and you need to know how to make the dog less inclined for siezures, which will shorten a dog's life dramatically. If you cannot afford the diagnostics and treatment, look into Care Credit, which makes loans for a reasonable interest rate and allows affordable payments. They don't require perfect credit and may be the difference between life and well-being to illness and decline.
