Award-Winning Compassion

The National Cat Awards are bringing out some real heroes this year, and Marley, a black-and-white feline, is leading the charge in the "Incredible Cats" category. Marley lives at a safe house for women who have been trafficked, where he’s become the resident therapist, offering comforting paws and a whole lot of purrs. As the “fluffy heart” of the home, Marley instinctively knows which of the residents needs his love the most, often offering the first act of kindness they’ve experienced in years. Talk about a purr-sonal therapist!

And Marley’s not the only cat working wonders. Cilla, another finalist, has made herself a beloved member of Outwoods Primary School, where she calms anxious students during exam season. With two beds in the library and a penchant for hanging out on the football field, Cilla ensures both students and staff are greeted with her calming presence. Then there's Marmaduke, a big orange cat who helped pull his owner Janice out of a deep depression following the tragic Manchester Arena bombing. With a lineup like this, the National Cat Awards is going to be a paws-itively tough competition.

Kitty to the Rescue

Trixy the cat wasn't exactly thrilled when her humans, Chas and Kezza, brought home Ted, a needy little Cavapoo puppy. After ruling the house solo for four years, Trixy took her sweet time before she finally accepted Ted's presence. But as the saying goes, good things come to those who wait, and patience has paid off for this dynamic duo. While Ted may lack the bravery you'd expect from a canine companion, Trixy has proven she's more than ready to defend her new friend.

The ultimate proof of their blossoming friendship came when a neighborhood bully—a sneaky black cat—tried to steal Ted's dog food. Ted didn't stand a chance, but thankfully Trixy swooped in like a feline superhero. Stealthily trailing the intruder into the kitchen, Trixy pounced at the perfect moment, chasing the food thief right out of the house. Ted may not have been brave enough to stand up for himself, but with Trixy on the case, it’s clear these two are well on their way to becoming best buds.
