Oscar Cat of Death
Oscar the cat has the uncanny ability to detect when a patient in a nursing home for dementia is about to die.
The cat, who has lived at the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation in Providence, Rhode Island since he was a kitten, normally wanders from room to room. But when a patient is hours from death Oscar remains at their bedside. If he is shut out he will scratch at the door until he is allowed in.
Professor David Dosa wrote about a day in the life of Oscar in The New England Journal of Medicine claiming that Oscar is the cuddlier, feline equivalent of the Grim Reaper.
Dosa says that Oscar’s presence at the bedside of severely ill patients is viewed by doctors and nurses alike as an almost absolute indicator of impending death.
The tale of Oscar is now available in a new book by Professor Dosa which expands on this compelling story.

It is the “4th Annual Ground Dog Day Open House” from 11:00 A.M. to 12:30 P.M on Saturday, January 30 2010 at the City of Buffalo Animal Shelter .
The celebration will be held at the shelter, 380 N. Oak Street, Buffalo, NY, United States. Details about the shelter can be found on Petfinder.
Doing a Punxsutawney Phil, will be LoveJoy Lulu, a female Chihuahua and former resident of the Buffalo Animal Shelter.
If you are in the area why not join in – you’ll be able to find out if winter will stick around for another six weeks. You’ll also be able to meet the shelter volunteers and have the opportunity to meet adorably adoptable dogs and cats.
It will be a perfect opportunity to find out about adoption procedures or if you can’t adopt why not make a donation to the shelter or bring food, leashes, collars, dog treats, kitty litter, or cat toys.

I like Danny cos he likes me.
He acts like he’z deaf sumtimes but he just does what he wants wen he wants to do it. Yoos can shout him to come home til yoo’ze a little horse. That’s wot Mum sez anyway, i’ze not going to shout at him cos i don’t want to be a little horse i’ze like being a cat.
Did i spelled horse wrong – should it be hoarse - no I’ze seen horse writted down and i think iz right.
If my brother Danny is a polydactyl is my sis Stole a terrordactyl?
Danny likes to Twitter but not as much as I do.
