Adopted by staff members at Steere House nursing home when he was a kitten, the three-year-old tabby has presided over the deaths of more than twenty-five nursing home residents thus far. His mere presence at the bedside is viewed by physicians and nursing-home staff as an almost absolute indicator of impending death, considered a blessing because it allows staff members to notify families that the end is near and because he provides companionship to those who would otherwise have died alone. 650 $a Audiobooks. 650 $a Cats $x Therapeutic use. 650 $a Hospice care. 650 $a Terminal care. 700 $a Porter, Ray, 1965- 856 $u http://wilbor.lib.overdrive.com/ContentDetails.htm?ID=764E0E18-ACB1-4F2D-838A-28FF71A42631 $3 URL 941 $a 1 952 $l XBPE737 $d 20101102010941.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=1708BA00DE6B11DF9C83A1F56AFF544EInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
