Assuming the dreamer is being treated as a patient in an animal hospital, the dream suggests that the dreamer feels that others, particularly authorities, do not recognize the dreamer's dignity or value as a human being. It might also indicate that the dreamer feels that she/he is being treated inappropriately.
I sopose it depends what animal it is so which animal is it?
It means you had a dream. That is all
This dream suggests the dreamer doubts the boy friend will be there for her when she needs him.
I suspect you are under stress and working out a problem in your life.
you're squished.
that you are horny.
Maybe you were delivering babies to the mothers? and maybe that's what you will be when you grow up!!! :D
you're thinking of being an actor/actress
It's just a dream so it doesn't really mean anything.
It is entirely natural and common to dream of the deceased after they pass away. Your mind might associate the person with the hospital because that may have been the last place you saw that person before their death.
The neglected animal probably symbolizes a real life responsibility or commitment that the dreamer has neglected. The dream is a nudge from the dreamer's subconscious mind to take care of the matter.
Dreams are about the dreamer. If you dream of putting someone in the hospital, your mind is using the image of that other person to represent something about yourself - probably that you are overdue for a medical checkup. On the other hand, if someone else dreams of putting you into the hospital, that dream is about that other person, and in that dream "you" represent something about that other person.
