I haven't read the rest of the responses but her is my take.

While this story is interesting and it is seemingly amazing that this cat has some special sense that folks are about to expire... I think we may getting the "Cat Before The Hearse!"

Perhaps the really sick GIVE UP when the cat curls up beside them because they have heard the rumor that Oscar predicts death... could it be that death is a response to a the cat rather than the cat responding to impending death?

Maybe people about to die smell like fish or something?

  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.

Uh... how long has it been since you stayed at your grandma's house?

I wouldn't say fish but I would say uniquely aromatic!

Absolutely NOT!
The facility managers have also ruled out any correlation to the fact that each hospice patient that died had severe respiratory allergies to cat fur and dander.

They determined it was just a coincidence that their esophagus' just all happened to be slammed shut!

whoa, whoa, whoa.....

is that some kind of special code word for this:

single between 48-54,
have a decent job,
no small children,
love God more than yourself
and
don't have a crazy ex-wife

inquiring minds have a need-to-know.
