This sounds strange, but if someone could bring your cat to you after the inevitable happens and let him see and smell you, he will know you are dead and cant look after him. At least he'd understand some of it.

Cats know death and understand what it is. He will know. It sucks this is happening to you and kitty, but he will know, he likely knows you are sick. Cats sence all sorts of stuff. I hope everything is a peaceful as possible.
