I hate to say it but this shouldn’t be a tough call in a nursing home.

Unless the cat is murdering them all.

Have they checked to make sure the cat isn’t somehow pulling plugs out of the wall sockets?

There was an episode of House about this.

http://house.wikia.com/wiki/Here_Kitty

Turns out the cat was drawn to feverish people and heated blankets.

Did they all have cat allergies?
I think if I lived there would get a puppy.

Grip reaper cat. How long before people club it to death as it peeks in someone’s room?

...ability to detect when nursing home patients are about to die has proven itself in around 50 cases by curling up with them in their final hours...

Was he curling up on their faces?

Do the residents dread seeing the cat come towards their rooms?

Is it possible that some just give up on living if the cat comes into the room?

OK - I'll be the one to ask.

Is it a black cat?

I agree. For some reason, I would find the presence of a dog or cat on my death bed very comforting.

In a lot of these cases, the residents do die alone because either the family can't get there in time or they don't care. Very sad.
