The BBC is carrying a (naturally very important) story about a cat in the states who can apparently predict death. From the article:
Oscar has a habit of curling up next to patients at the home in Providence, Rhode Island, in their final hours.
...
A doctor who treats patients at the home said she believed there was probably a biochemical explanation, rather than the cat being psychic.
Which just goes to show that the Doctor doesn't read the right books. The cat isn't psychic at all. But cats can see Death:
Death is not invisible. Most people just refuse to acknowledge him for who he is, unless he insists. Under normal circumstances, only those of a magical disposition (e.g. witches and wizards), children and cats can see him, or allow themselves to see him.
Once again, Pterry is found to be accurate. Also, interestingly, Firefox doesn't seem to think that Pterry is a typo. Oh, wait. It does. Never mind then.
