Rusty who dreams about eating.
Thank you, Amy from Australia for this interesting question. Here from the collective wisdom of the animals is the answer:
Their world is much simpler and they do not need the subconscious prodding that humans get from their dreams. So although they do remember them, they do not spend much time thinking about them. Their dream state is in an entirely different context than yours. Their dreams contain no great lessons they are simply pleasant frolics and whatever past times they find most enjoyable.
They may dream of a loved one who has gone from their lives and upon waking spend some time reflecting upon the precious memories. Since they sleep more erratically than humans, they do not have the same intensity of dreams. They are more short fragments and most often forgotten upon waking. Even those that are remembered are not recognized as dreams in the same way that people understand what a dream is. It’s more like a lovely memory that drifts across their consciousness.

The question is..do animals dream?
If yes, I think they can remember.
You don’t need to be an animal communicator to see that animals dream. Have you ever watched a dog during sleep? The sounds they make and the way they move their bodies leaves no doubt that they are involved in some exciting escapade or other. Their dreams are much simpler than ours but nevertheless, they do dream.
