I used to work in the ER years ago in a small community hospital, and this neighborhood cat had figured out how the automatic doors on the ambulance ramp worked, and would slip in behind the paramedics and go curl up in the triage chair and wait for patients to come to the window to say hi. She also made rounds of the neighbouring nursing home and hospice on a regular basis.
Sounds like it was collecting souls
kinda what psychopomps are for, yeah.
More like farming them.
Tend them and care for them so they grow big and strong. You only want to pluck them when they are perfectly ripe.
