Good to know Hector's back I read this in the paper yesterday. I think it's pretty neat. At least those people didn't die alone.

I just kinda fell into this one....
That is a really sweet story though, and I, being the tender person that I am, was very touched by it. Oh and as a side note, Cats are awesomer than dogs.

I've seen several versions of that story on the 'net. The one I most remember, is where the residents of the home take a rather strong dislike to the death-predicting cat. Think about it, if the cat jumps on your bed and stays there, it's your last day. Everybody thinks you're a dead man, or woman. Not really something you'd like to know, I'd say. And one day the cat disappears, 'intervention' of the residents was suspected but never proven...
