Meet best friends cat Siggy and baby Isaac.
Isaac was born with a serious heart defect. At just 12 weeks old, Isaac underwent his first heart surgery. And throughout all the adversity, Siggy, the family’s ginger cat, has never left his side.
“It turned out that Isaac was seriously ill with multiple heart problems and I think Siggy knew because he would sleep under Isaac’s Moses basket whenever Isaac was in it like he was guarding him,” says mother Kirsty Jai Skelton.
Siggy has since day one been at Isaac’s side, behaving like a protective older sibling.
The very first day they met after bringing Isaac, “Siggy sniffed him, rubbed his head, and fell asleep next to us,” Kirsty describes.
Isaac is now recovering well after his surgery.
As soon as he’d returned home from the hospital, Siggy came directly to him and refused to leave his side, to Isaac’s parents’ delight, who truly believed Siggy had contributed to Isaac’s recovery.
The love and compassion animals can show are just tremendous! Share this article with your family and friends if you think so, too.
Baby and adopted cat meet for the first time in cute video

The footage starts with the baby named Matthew cuddling the cat’s paws.
The baby continues to do so before the white cat returns its affection by licking his head.
Apparently, the video shows more than the blossoming affection between these two, as the baby’s mother wrote in the caption that the cat was newly adopted by their family.
They were not sure how the adopted cat would react to his new life and his family.
Thankfully, it looks like the cat will get along well with the family and possibly be a best friend to little Matthew!
