Cat Doll, Dream Analysis Help

Date: 8/6/2016

This isn't a recent dream. This is a reoccurring dream I used to have as a child. I would like it if some one could help me figure out if there's a meaning to this dream, considering it reoccurred so often. When I was about four or five, I got this little cat doll thing from Gymboree or something. If I remember correctly, it was tan or brown and wore either a pink shirt and a purple skirt or vice versa. After getting the doll, I had a reoccurring nightmare every so often for at least the next four years. The dream would normally start out like it was a normal day. I would be inside my house playing with my toys, and then I would go outside and play with my friends. I would play with them for a little bit, and then that's when things would begin to get weird. The dream would cut to a perspective through a person's eyes, like you would see in a movie, of my friends and I. Sort of like we were being stalked. It would then go back to normal, but the stalking vibe would hang around. Eventually, my friends and I would see the doll run into my house. I tell my friends that I'm going to go inside, and then I follow the doll in. When I walk inside, my mother is nowhere to be found. I hunt around for my mother for a little while until I find a weird looking door. I go through the door, and upon doing so, I end up in a room that's practically a black void, the only thing there being the floor and... My mother! Only my mother is strapped down to a silver operating table. I try frantically to free her, but all my attempts fail. Eventually, the cat doll walks in through the door with a surgeon mask on and a knife. The doll kidnapped my mother and was going to operate on her and torture her and there was nothing I could do. Suddenly, I would be strapped to an operating table identical to my mother's. The doll would suddenly hover over my face and that's when I would wake up. This dream continued to reoccur every so often until I was about ten. I hid the doll in the very back of my closet until one day, I found it and threw it away. Ever since I get rid of it, I haven't had that stupid dream. Do you guys think there's something more to the dream? Was there something weird going on with that doll? What do you guys think the dream meant?
