This happened with my mother-in-law. The cat had the run of the big place. My MIL was there for a year and half dying of Lewy Body Dementia. In her final days the cat was a constant presence. It rarely visited her room before that time. It was oddly comforting to see the kitty curled up next to her.
I heard on the news that Robin Williams was diagnosed with Lewy Body Dementia. That could explain his need to end his life.
” It was oddly comforting to see the kitty curled up next to her.”
My late mother would have loved that.

My cat wouldn’t leave my mom’s side when she was dying. After she passed, he would look for her then curl up on the blanket she had had on her. That broke my heart.
