I can't read it. Not because I hate The Sun, just because their website fails and always seems to be on a constant refresh thing :S.

Thats pretty cool!
I guess an asset to them :)

[kuzkasate]

Amazing. I'd love a cat like that!

I had one but it scratched everything and slept all day! :@

[Inseriousity.]

I'd hate a cat like that, probably give me a heart attack just knowing it was staying close to me. No wonder why it's always right :P

[leah]

lmaoooo omg thats weird

[hah]

omg it would sad having it tho cause you will kno when someone is dying :(

[Seatherny]

So if no patient is going to die any time soon, what does the cat do? Sit away from the patients?

Finally managed to read about it elsewhere. Pretty amazing, he even has his own wiki page; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_(cat) :)

It'll be interesting if all cases of deaths resulted in an infection or reaction to Oscar, due to some sort of allergic reaction :P Pretty interesting though. I think this may have been reported before a few years ago, the story seems familiar. That, or another animal :/

[Black_Apalachi]

Yeah his Wiki page (fixed link: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_(cat)) says it was first reported a few years back. I was thinking that though, it actually surprises me to know that they considered scientific explanations rather than simply blaming the cat and deeming it a symbol of bad luck lol.

dogs too start barking if any tsunami / earthquake comes
scary sixth sense of animals:O

[Grippz]

That's one cat you really wouldn't want hanging around you LOL ;/

[RedStratocas]

yeah i remember reading about this a couple years ago, very peculiar.

edit: lawwlllllll @ this persons comment

They should get the cat a cloak and a scythe costume just for fun

[Richie]

[Jin]

Remember this story back in 07. Anyone considered that maybe the cat is a serial killer.

[AlexOC]

Oooooh wierd.

And lmao Jin!
