Oscar (born 2005) is a therapy cat living in the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Providence, Rhode Island, United States.
Cat that could "predict" the deaths of patients in a nursing home several hours before they died.
At least 25 successful predictions, in which patients died hours after the cat sat down by their beds. He sniffs and watches a patient before sitting down with her. Oscar then purrs while sitting with the patient and usually leaves soon after she dies.
