No. 246: The Cat That Senses Death
Listen now
Description
When today’s guest wrote an essay for the New England Journal of Medicine about a nursing home cat’s habit of showing up when patients were nearing death, he never expected it would lead to a book tour. Dr. David Dosa is a geriatrician and an assistant professor of medicine at Brown University in Rhode Island, and he joined the Petcasters to discuss his memoir, “Making Rounds With Oscar: The Extraordinary Gift of An Ordinary Cat.” Plus, Vegas journalist Jennifer Prosser, editor of Where Las Vegas, describes her extensive pet family -- turtles, cats and fish, oh my! -- in her first episode substituting for Steve. And after several tries with Steve and Dayvid, Emily finally finds a sympathetic ear with Jen on her on-going complaint about JetBlue’s pet policy.  Site: ThePetcast.Com Email: [email protected] Voicemail: 702-997-3300 Twitter: @ThePetcast
