Dosa, David.

Making rounds with Oscar : the extraordinary gift of an ordinary cat / David Dosa. - 1st ed. - New York : Hyperion, c2010. - 225 p. ; 22 cm. Hardback book.

When Oscar arrived at the Steere House Nursing and Rehabilitation Center in Rhode Island he was a cute little cat with attitude. He loved to stretch out in a puddle of sunlight and chase his tail until he was dizzy. Occasionally he consented to a scratch behind the ears, but only when it suited him. In other words, he was a typical cat. Or so it seemed. It wasn't long before Oscar had created something of a stir. Apparently, this ordinary cat possesses an extraordinary gift: he knows instinctively when the end of life is near.
