PROVIDENCE, RI (TDR)- Oscar, the nursing home cat who could seemingly sense the impending death of patients, was found dead early yesterday. The cat gained recent notoriety when reports of his ability to detect the impending death of the terminally ill became public.

Still sick on all accounts.
If those who go along with the joke, how about a humor site about the dogs Vick killed.

Interesting transcript: The Story of Oscar the Cat with David M. Dosa, M.D. Assistant Professor of Medicine, Brown University ...who wrote the Article "A Day in the Life of Oscar the Cat" ( The New England Journal of Medicine, July 26). Kinda cool.

Oh, I agree. I don’t even own a cat, haven’t for some years, but I do like them. Their independent nature - and the fact that you can go away for a couple of days without worrying about them - appeals to me. But some people on this site, and in general I guess, seem to have a real hate-on for cats.

Having pulled over a speeding driver.]

Mac: All right, how about Cat Game?

Foster: Cat Game? What’s the record?

Mac: Thorny did six, but I think you can do ten.

Foster: Ten? Starting right meow?

[They go up to the car.]

Driver: Sorry about the...

Foster: All right meow. Hand over your license and registration.

[The man gives him his license.]

Foster: Your registration? Hurry up meow.

Driver: [laughing] Sorry.

Foster: Is there something funny here boy?

Driver: Oh, no.

Foster: Then why you laughing, Mister... Larry Johnson?

[Foster stares at him.]

Foster: All right meow, where were we?

Driver: Excuse me, are you saying meow?

Foster: Am I saying meow?

Driver: I thought...

Foster: Don’t think boy. Meow, do you know how fast you were going?

[The man laughs.]

Foster: Meow. What is so damn funny?

Driver: I could have sworn you said meow.

Foster: Do I look like a cat to you, boy? Am I jumpin’ around all nimbly-bimbly from tree to tree? Am I drinking milk from a saucer? DO YOU SEE ME EATING MICE?

[The man is uncontrollably laughing.]

Foster: You stop laughing right meow!

Driver: [Stops and swallows hard.] Yes sir.

Foster: Meow, I’m gonna have to give you a ticket on this one. No buts meow. It’s the law.

[Rips off the ticket and hands it to the man.]

Foster: Not so funny meow, is it?

[Foster gets up to leave, but Mac shakes his hands at him, indicating only nine meows.]

Foster: Meow!

I heard that one of the owners of the facility had just bought a bed for the cat so it would have a bed of its own. It was found dead in its own bed, the first time it slept in it.

You’ll be glad to know that it’s a parody site, though this is not terribly funny.

YEAH!! The cat lives :-).

Thanks all for the heads up. Sometimes when it comes to emotionally sensitive material my husband has to explain the humor.
