The said bonus episode had two parts. One narrated the story of a cat, while the other steeped into the great folklores of Greek mythology, leaving people astounded. The animated part was mind-blowing and represented a new perspective of lives other than humans on this planet. The first part of the episode, especially, was a standout for how it managed to reiterate Dream’s message throughout the 10-episode long season.

A Dream of a Cat can transform the world in episode 11 of The Sandman 

A Dream of a Thousand Cats dives deeper into the dream of a feline whose kids are drowned in water by humans. The story begins with a small kitten jumping out of his home to go out at night. Soon, it is revealed that all the city’s cats have gathered to meet a mistress cat.

The cat is a prophet who spreads the word from place to place. She tells a tale of her sorrows when she prayed to her god to give her justice. The prophet sleeps and goes to The Dreaming to meet Morpheus.

This episode of The Sandman takes viewers to the dreamworld of animals. The cat told everyone how she traveled through the mysterious and wicked paths to reach him.

Moreover, when she finally meets him, he shows her a world where cats used to rule the world and humans were mere servants. The dream is simply meant to inspire the Siamese cat that dreams can change anything.

“Dreams shape the world. Dreams create the world anew every night.” 

The animation clearly states that whatever a human or any other living creature dreams, the world becomes it. So cats must dream of a world where no superior species is ruling over them. Therefore, the old mistress goes from place to place to tell cats that even if a thousand dream of their freedom, they will be free. The bonus episode of The Sandman is currently streaming on Netflix.
