"Oscar," a cat who doesn't let anyone leave alone.
In a nursing home.
At Providence, Rhode Island, U.S.A.
There's a cat named Oscar.
It's not a healing cat.
No schedule.
No one is trained to do anything.
But the nurses began to notice
Every time any patient
Is entering the end of his life.
Oscar will walk into the room.
Jump on the bed.
And sit there. Be quiet.
Sometimes stay for hours.
Sometimes all night.
Without getting up anywhere
And the next morning,
That patient also often leaves.
In peace.
The doctor said
What Oscar did that.
happened over and over again.
Until almost never going wrong
The hospital then began to notify relatives.
Seeing Oscar go to sit by someone's bed,
To give them time.
Come live with a loved one for the last time.
No one can explain for sure.
How does this little cat know
Some believe that.
It recognizes small changes in the body.
Some say
Animals may have senses.
That humans don't have.
But whatever the reason is,
Everyone in there knows that.
No one has to leave alone.
If Oscar chooses to be there,
Be friends in the last seconds of your life.
📌 Oska died in 2022.
According to some sources, there are more than 100 "death forecasting" statistics. 📌

(The cover image is the real picture and the face of everyone. You are very cute. You spend all your life as a strange friend, person after person, not to be known, not to be memorialized, but to let someone not leave alone.)
