© New England Journal of Medicine
This is just the kind of story that people absolutely 100% want to believe is true: a cat that has special powers to divine when a nursing home patient is about to die. Whether there’s any truth to it doesn’t matter. The idea of a cat jumping on a patient’s bed and sleeping next to them is heart warming. Hopefully the cat will one day have a friend of her own to share her peaceful moment.
