Oscar the Cat
From Life Done Right SeniorWiki
Oscar the Cat resides in the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center and has special powers that allow him to predict when a nursing home patient is about to die. Oscar the Cat makes the rounds in the nursing home, befriending all with his companionship. But Oscar the Cat seems to know when trouble is coming. Just hours before a patient dies, Oscar the Cat will jump up on the bed and snuggle there until the person passes away. Oscar the Cat may sound like a hoax, but the staff will kindly inform you that he has presided over 25 deaths. Oscar the Cat just might qualify as a guardian angel.
