The Psychic China cat that predicted the Mathc between
Argentina and Nigeria has died. He made his “predictions” by choosing between
two bowls of cat food bearing the national flags of competing teams.
The cat Baidian’er drew a huge following on social media
after he got it right six times in a row – including Croatia beating Argentina,
and Argentina’s late win over Nigeria – and photos of the “psychic cat” got
thousands of likes.
According to China today his winning streak was cut short on
Monday when the cat, believed to be around seven or eight, died at a local
veterinary clinic from blood clots resulting from a congenital heart defect.
Palace Museum staff had set up a microblog account on Weibo
to keep fans updated on the popular cat’s health after they found him ailing on
Friday last week and took him to the clinic.
On Monday, staff broke the news that Baidian’er had died.
“We’re sorry, we have to let him go,” the post read, alongside
a black-and-white photo of the moggie.
Ta! I suspect fowl play.
They don't want the poor cat to predict the final winner.
All these betting companies, their way nor pure...
May his killers never go unpunished!
As from now, they will keep dreaming of cats.😁😁😁
