That cat weighs 15lb! No wonder the bear crapped itself - it's a panther!

And how many cases has it curled up and the patient lived? And how many died without the cat near?

"The cat is said to do his own rounds, just like the doctors and nurses at the home, but is not generally friendly to patients"
