The baby was born with a heart defect and the cat won’t leave her

Siggy and baby Isaac are close friends. They never leave each other. Isaac had a heart operation when he was only 12 weeks old. The special thing was that the family cat never left him.

“Isaac turned out to be 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 never left him.

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 the delight of Isaac’s parents, who genuinely believe Siggy has contributed to Isaac’s recovery.
