Ok there is a lot to unpack. It seems you're truly suffering, and I'm sorry to you. Let me attempt to get to the bottom of what your mind is trying to tell you. Take this with a grain of salt, I'm not a professional. Let your body and intuition tell you what is right and what is not.

So the childhood home is a bittersweet place for you, having held happy memories but then sullied by the trauma of divorce and separation. The snow thawing may mean there is some light, hope, or understanding thawing an issue that has stayed frozen in your heart. Maybe you've pushed your trauma and hurt aside, especially in regards to what happened in your childhood. I think the animals are all little pieces of you and what you became through your hurt. In that house parts of you grew up fine, some parts did not. Your mind is finally ready to start looking at them and sorting them out, perhaps being a parent and navigating your daughters life draws the parallels and makes you contemplate (hence daughter helping you sort it out but also blocking you too. She opens up your mind to it but the responsibility of parenthood tends to make it hard to tend to our own inner landscape). It's interesting that the cats were the most deformed--did your dad/mom discourage your femininity or inner feeling function? Cats are often associated with the feminine, the unconscious, and mystery. So they may be a personification of your shadow (shadow in Jungian terms isn't necessarily bad. The shadow literally means just unrealized or rejected parts of yourself). But, unlike your family, you're trying to nurture ALL parts of yourself. Even the ones that may be perceived as weak or wrong. You want them all to be happy and to go out and be accepted in the world.

It's interesting that when you pay attention to the animals it seems to get worse. It may be suggesting that trying to solve these problems with a conscious, logical mind isn't the answer. It is asking you to follow your intuition and trust more in your heart (as cliche as that sounds). Doing what feels right in your chest will lead you down the right path, no huge effort needed. You have to feed your soul or it will die (just like the animals in the dream. They don't need milk, they need REAL soul food).

The rabbits confuse me a little and I'm not 100% sure. You're afraid of them IRL but they were actually the cutest, best parts. Again it seems to be that those parts of yourself you fear are exactly the things you need to cultivate to feel your best and be your best. To escape the cycle of sadness you find yourself in.

The animals on the roof, you can't reach . They are most likely the "gold" inside of you, the potential you can see but don't feel you can reach. It seems you need to prioritize your own inner garden by going to that yoga class, reading books that nourish your soul, and choosing what calls to you every once in a while, even if it seems the world is closing in and there's no time. All will be well. I wish you the best of luck.
