pbase Flowers for Oscar July 27 R1011167.jpg

Oscar went global yesterday, he was on CBS news, BBC, German, Austrailia, etc. .

http://www.cbsnews.com/sections/i_video/main500251.shtml?id=3105504n

Today, he had to go to Vet and get 3 shots - Poor boy!

However, a family member who he held a vigil with - sent him flowers, with words
thanking him for being with her Mother while she died and noting that he was a star.

Who would have though that essay about a cat and a photograph would have so
many persons talking in the US, UK, Australia, Spain, and Germany.

The staff all wore OSCAR the cat badges today!

You know Joan, after you sent me the PDF I was telling all my friends about Oscar making the journal. There was not a single person I told who hadn't already heard the story elsewhere. Oscar IS a star
