I had a dream where I was in an abandoned field with ruins of a stone/brick house. There was a lynx following me around, then she looked up at the chimney which was in ruins but still standing. I understood that she wanted me to climb it. I climbed up the chimney, barefoot, using holes and gaps in the bricks to move myself upwards. When I got to the top, which was about 15~20 feet, a red tail hawk flew down and landed on the chimney. We spoke to each other and became friends. When I climbed back down to the ground, the hawk would fly to my arm and told me that if I ever needed him, he would come when I called. He was very gentle with me and always made sure his talons wouldn't cut into my skin.

Is this possibly a dream/spirit/animal guide?

I've had another dream similar to it, but much longer ago, before the dream I stated above. I was walking by an abandoned home. It looked like a cabin (made of logs and brick), with various tools of living around it. I saw a child, it was neither a boy or girl. I chased it to a brick wall of the cabin and it turned into a mouse and ran into a hole in the wall. I was shocked in my dream to see a child turn into a mouse so I dropped to my knees and suddenly couldn't move. I felt woozy and dizzy. The mouse then came out of the hole and sat on it's hind legs and started talking. I was shocked that now an animal was talking, so I asked it if all animals could talk. The mouse then told me that I could talk to any animal I wanted to.
