Dream of biting, hands

I'm sleeping in bed and am aware that something has pshed the door open and is lying by the side of my head, i think it is a cat(maybe my cat, though i do not have cats now) i start to sleep again and it starts to bite me and i can hear its stomach gurgling, i think it is hungry and i move to get up and feed it but it is still biting, my arms and ny back, i can hear it saying 'so hungry' when i move to the door i turn to look at it and it is standing on 2 legs with a cannister in its hands and it seems to want to spray me with something. i move out the room and close the door but i feel there is something else in the hallway so i go back into the bedroom and get into bed so that the 'cat' will come back and i can grab it. i feel it is close, over me, so i swing my arm to strike it and i hit it into the corner. then i wake, for real, and look in the corner and see something melting into the shadow
