That's pretty neat....I guess. There's a cat, Cinders, at the nursing home where my granddad was that sits on an empty bed that will be occupied soon, even the same day. The nurses prepare for another patient when they see her do that. She's usually right! |

If I was lying in bed and heard that little bugger wailing outside my bedroom door I'd be pretty bloody annoyed, I can tell you. Slippers would be thrown. |

ZOOOOOM!

No joke. Wonder how the patients feel about getting a visit from Oscar after hearing who he spends his time with. |

Well, since they all have dementia, I don't think they remember what his visits mean... |

Well that's what they specialize in but I wonder if they do any other cases. |

Not me. If I'm in a nursing home, presumably I know I'm on the way out. Hopefully I've made peace with that inevitability and I'd love to spend my last moments with a very special cat who opts to give me love and affection in my final moments while the people in my life chose to abandon me to a nursing home. I could throw slippers and have a lonely bitter death or I could let Oscar in and die snuggled up to a warm loving furry purring sweetheart. Tough choice... |

Maybe when the residents croak, Oscar tries to bury them...

If I was in a nursing home and about to kick it, I probably wouldn't be all to aware of the cat anyways, but if I did I think I'd welcome a warm furry creature on my deathbed.
I can see that. |
